Consistently dependable

A key to delivering reliable results on every project - we don’t simply assume consistency; we actively monitor and enforce it, applying the appropriate level of management to suit the project’s needs and guaranteeing uniform quality from start to finish.

Accountable every step of the way

We deliver precisely and efficiently - upholding transparency and accountability at every step of our work. This commitment underlines our status as a groundworks industry leader and ensures our clients remain confident in our ability to achieve programme goals with precision and reliability. 

Operating throughout the Southwest

With offices in Taunton and Swindon, Tithegrove is firmly rooted in the Southwest, bringing extensive regional knowledge and expertise to every project. Our team understands the unique challenges and opportunities of the area, enabling us to deliver tailored groundworks solutions that meet the highest standards while respecting the needs of local communities.

Our approach

Tithegrove prides itself on its values of dependability, positivity, respect and empathy. Our culture is built on a commitment to consistently meeting the highest standards, fostering a sense of reliability that our clients and colleagues can trust.

We approach challenges with a proactive, can-do attitude, always striving to find solutions together.

Our approach is built on thorough preparation, meticulous planning, and continuous improvement, with a strong focus on safety, quality, and client satisfaction. At every stage, we prioritise tender transparency, open communication, and proactive problem-solving to ensure projects run smoothly, no matter what arises.

We begin by gathering all necessary information - drawings, briefs, scope, environmental and ground conditions, and details of existing services. This comprehensive discovery process allows us to identify potential risks early on, ensuring that we can mitigate them upfront. By prioritising safety and transparency from the outset, we safeguard both our workforce and the project’s success, while fostering trust with our clients.

With a clear understanding of the project, we create a detailed plan for the sequence of works, ensuring that we have the right resources, materials, and top-of-the-range equipment to deliver with precision and efficiency.

Our team takes extra care to coordinate key subcontractors at critical stages, ensuring safety and quality remain at the forefront of every decision. Throughout the planning process, we maintain open lines of communication with our clients, keeping them informed and confident in our approach.

As work progresses, safety and quality continue to be our top priorities. Our hands-on, problem-solving attitude ensures that we tackle any challenges that arise with agility and precision, keeping projects on track.

We leverage our advanced business management systems to effectively manage risks and maintain the highest standards of safety and quality, using only the best equipment to ensure efficiency and accuracy.

We continually evaluate the project and its environment, adapting our approach to meet changing conditions and improve outcomes.

This dynamic, forward-thinking process ensures that we not only meet but exceed client expectations, delivering exceptional results that are aligned with both safety requirements and the broader project goals.
