Drop Kerb Installation

FPL Contractors Ltd is renowned for expertly executing drop kerb installations, which are a vital component of urban infrastructure, facilitating vehicle access while ensuring pedestrian safety. We meticulously blend functionality with aesthetic considerations, ensuring that the new kerb aligns perfectly with your property’s design..

What’s Involved in Dropping Kerbs?

The procedure of dropping kerbs is multi-faceted, involving thorough preparation, skilled execution, and post-installation inspections. The team at FPL Contractors Ltd takes a comprehensive approach, starting with an in-depth evaluation of the site to ensure that the planned modifications will not conflict with existing infrastructure. Following the assessment, we develop a detailed plan that covers all aspects of the construction phase, including precise excavation, sub-base preparation, kerb lowering, and the reinstatement of the pavement surface. We manage all elements with meticulous attention to detail to ensure a flawless finish.

Drop Kerb Installation

Our initial step involves a rigorous site assessment conducted by our team of experts. This process is essential for establishing the scope of work and identifying any unique challenges that may arise during the drop kerb installation. During the planning phase, FPL Contractors Ltd takes into consideration the landscape, existing roadwork, and local environment to design a dropped kerb that integrates seamlessly. The planning also includes contingency strategies to mitigate any unforeseen issues, ensuring a smooth installation process.

Liaising with Authorities

Navigating the complexities of local regulations is a critical aspect of dropping kerbs. FPL Contractors Ltd excels in this arena, taking the lead in securing necessary permits and ensuring that all aspects of the installation are in strict compliance with local bylaws.

This proactive liaison minimises disruptions and ensures that the project progresses without unnecessary delays.
