Our Services

We specialise in groundworks and civil engineering, offering a wide range of services that include:

  • Groundworks: Our groundworkers create a construction project's vital infrastructure by balancing powerful excavation works with complex technical processes. From clearing a site of its topsoil layer to setting out the foundations, we provide the expertise and manpower needed to ensure a successful project.
  • Civil Engineering: Our civil engineers use environmental and structural expertise to bring a building to life. They provide the complex calculations needed for a mechanically sound construction, ensuring that the development project can be delivered on time and within budget.
  • Earthworks: The first step in any new development, our earthworks prepare the ground for excavation. We strip away the topsoil, clear the site of vegetation, remove excess earth (muckaway), and level out any unevenness to make way for groundbreaking to begin.
  • Foundations: Our skilled foundations excavators provide stable and strong grounding for buildings, following detailed technical specifications so that trenches are taken to the correct depths and avoid collapse and infill.

Reviews
Negative: Reviewers experienced unprofessionalism, intimidation, and subpar work quality from Mackoy's staff.

Poor Experience with Mackoy

Unprofessionalism and Intimidation

The reviews highlight the unprofessional behavior of Mackoy's staff, with one reviewer experiencing loud and intimidating behavior from the team from day one on their new build project. This lack of professionalism was evident in their demeanor and attitude towards the residents.

Subpar Work Quality and Unreliable Staff

The second reviewer had a disastrous experience with Mackoy, employing them for groundworks on a new property. The staff who arrived on site were under the influence of cannabis and alcohol, leading to a slow start to the job and extremely poor work quality. The inexperience of the staff caused the project to fall behind schedule, with the foreman struggling to understand site drawings and digging excessively deep holes in several areas.
