Our third phase of works at Royal Bournemouth Hospital has successfully, but sadly, come to an end.

Over the past 4.5 years, we have been proud to contribute to a wide range of projects across the site, supporting the ongoing development and improvement of this vital healthcare facility.

Our works have included drainage installations, demolition, fuel tank installation, new-build foundations, a 65+ tonne gantry installation, electrical installation preparations, fire door works, multiple repair projects, vaulted floor construction, concrete works, general groundworks, and much more.

It has been a privilege to play a part in the continued development of such an important facility, and we would like to thank everyone involved throughout the various phases of work.

We look forward to the opportunity of working with the team at Royal Bournemouth Hospital again in the near future.

Thank you to all our operatives, clients, suppliers, and partners who helped make these projects a success over the last few years.

Marcus was delighted to have been asked to deliver works on these projects.
We was trusted to keep this new development under wraps until now and are proud to have been working on two major local projects, the new stadium extension at AFC Bournemouth’s Vitality Stadium and the ongoing works at Pokesdown Railway Station, following on from the previous AFC Bournemouth training ground works.

It’s great to be part of projects that will improve local infrastructure and facilities for the community, while contributing to the future development of the area.

The Cherries will pay more than £1million for improvements to local infrastructure should their Vitality Stadium plans be approved.
