Safety embedded in everything we do
Infrastructure works often involve deep excavations, live utilities and plant movements in constrained or occupied sites.
Our teams are trained, accredited and experienced in managing these risks because safety is not a box to tick, it is a value that drives every decision we make on site.
Programme certainty when it matters most
- Clear, proactive communication: we manage relationships with statutory undertakers, local authorities and site stakeholders through regular updates that keep schemes moving.
- Adaptable delivery: ground conditions shift and utilities clash, our teams respond quickly, solve problems on site and keep the job moving.
Please contact us if you are looking for an infrastructure contractor in the Midlands.
Technical delivery to adoptable standards
Roads, drainage and structures that will be adopted by a local authority or water company have to be right first time. Our teams work to the relevant design standards and specifications, with Early Contractor Involvement available to improve buildability, programme certainty and cost control before work starts on site.

FAQs
What infrastructure works do you carry out?
Our infrastructure work spans on-site drainage, the construction and reconfiguration of car parks, renewables and substation works, and embankment/bank stabilisation, projects such as the Woodlands Business Park car park extension in Milton Keynes, the new HV intake substation at the University of Leicester, and bank stabilisation at Redbridge HWRC in Oxford. Much of this is delivered within live operator environments, working alongside site teams to keep facilities running while works are carried out with minimal disruption.
Can you build roads and drainage to adoptable standards?
Do you get involved before a project starts on site?
Engaging Danaher & Walsh at the ECI stage ensures their buildability, programme and cost expertise influences the design before it is fixed, thereby reducing risk, avoiding costly late changes and enhancing early cost certainty. It also supports earlier coordination with statutory undertakers, highway authorities and stakeholders, and improved sequencing of live‑environment activities to minimise disruption during construction.
Do you also work as a subcontractor to Main Contractors?
Yes, alongside our direct work for public sector clients, developers and regional/national house builders, we also deliver highway and infrastructure work packages as a subcontractor on larger schemes led by Tier 1 contractors, bringing the same level of quality and project management to both roles.
