Earthworks and hydraulic engineering

Construction involves moving, shaping, layering and fixing earth.
With our modern machinery, we fully cover the needs of earthworks and hydraulic engineering:

• excavation
• embankment fillings
• terrain fills
• steep slopes
• stream embankments
• renaturations
• river corrections
• flood protection

Construction machinery

In difficult construction site situations we get creative. Individual excavators can bridge distances of 20 m thanks to various attachments. This means that deep excavations or work can be carried out at great distances. For example, we can drill earth holes on high embankments and prune bushes on the opposite bank of the river, with minimal disturbance to flora and fauna.

Single-family houses - from the basement to the roof

For residential projects, we often construct the complete shell, from the excavation pit with sewer connections to the masonry roof gable.

Our works:

• Foundations, floor slabs, basement, parking halls, etc.
• masonry works
• Master builder works for floor slabs, access zones, balconies
• Installation of concrete elements such as elevator shafts, prefabricated stairs etc.
• Surrounding works: Road construction, retaining walls, etc.

Residential buildings - solid construction

Solidly built houses benefit from their heat storage mass. The outer insulation layer protects the solid walls and floors from excessive cooling in winter and heating in summer.
The solid walls, ceilings and floors in the building react sluggishly to temperature fluctuations. This causes the rooms to remain cool in summer and warm in winter, creating a comfortable indoor climate.
In addition, solid interior walls, ceilings and stairs provide good sound insulation. Their load-bearing capacity, fire protection values and harmlessness to health make conventional building materials safe, durable and stable in value.

Advantages of solid buildings:

• Walls and ceilings serve as heat accumulators
• Protection of the building fabric through External insulation
• Stable and resilient
• High sound and fire protection values
• Long-term value retention
