We have built a number of harbours – large and small – with quays and breakwaters: quays constructed either as steel sheet pile walls or as concrete block walls – dictated by client wishes - and breakwaters protected by either rock boulders or patented concrete blocks, depending on local conditions and local availability of large boulders.

Coastal protection with revetments, groynes and rockbuilt break- waters and reclamation using sand is another of our specialities. We frequently quarry the rock for breakwaters and coastal protection ourselves, using our own equipment, specialised staff and manpower.
