Structural Works Services
Fastway Constructions Ltd undertakes structural work for domestic and commercial clients in all London areas. With qualified structural engineers in our team, we can manage projects from conception to completion. We work to plans drawn up by the client’s architect, or to our own calculations.
Strong structural elements are essential to the stability of building and construction works. It is an area that requires skill and attention to detail. We have the experience needed to undertake superstructural and substructural works.
Excavations
Excavation is the removal of earth to form a cavity in the ground. At Fastway Construction Ltd, our team has many years of experience in excavation, earthworks and groundworks. We use heavy plant to excavate topsoil and aggregates. Our team is knowledgeable in current Health & Safety protocol and protects clients, our own workforce, the public and nearby properties.

Propping
In the field of structural work, propping involves the use of members to temporarily support a load. Propping materials come in different shapes and sizes, and they can be used for a wide range of projects. We use Acrow props to support loads of a medium weight, but other systems available to our team include tilt props, trishore props, mono props and titan props.
Our contractors install prop systems to stabilise structures.
Foundations
From underpinning basements at homes in London, to correcting structural defects on commercial buildings, our contractors can work on projects of any size. We are committed to meeting client requirements, and we fulfil their expectations of us by staying inside agreed budgets and timescales. These qualities make Fastway Construction Ltd a trusted regional choice.
Removing Load-Bearing Walls
The removal of load-bearing walls must be calculated with care and carried out in a way that keeps the structure sound and stable. The engineers at Fastway Construction Ltd can draw up detailed plans and drawings. We can then knock through or remove load-bearing walls. Knocking through a load-bearing wall is a great way to improve the layout of a property.
It also allows more natural light to enter room space.
Underpinning
We undertake underpinning work on construction projects across all of London. Underpinning is a form of structural work used to strengthen or increase the depth of foundations. Underpinning may be needed to support additional storeys, or to address any issues related to instability.
Our team has experience in all underpinning methods, including traditional mass concrete pouring and RC framework.
Underpinning involves sectional excavating to a planned depth below the structures footing and filling the cavity with a poured concrete mix which is then left to cure.
