    "The CCS team recently re-levelled the rear of my house and the rear of the adjoining property. The experience was first class from start to finish with excellent communication throughout. I was particularly impressed with the way the on-site team worked together and the care taken to ensure that there was no impact on the substantial amount of tile flooring throughout my house. The team were clearly very good at their job, worked well together and left the site tidy and clean. Would highly recommend."

His team was very hardworking and consistently on site at 7:30 sharp every morning, ready to get started. The quality of the work and the professionalism they displayed gave us real peace of mind. I would happily recommend Simon to anyone looking for a trustworthy and skilled tradesman."

I need not have worried as Simon and Wes did a brilliant job of explaining what needed doing and how it would be done. I was delighted with how the team did the work. A very professional job. Many thanks!"

    "I recently had the pleasure of working with CCS to address some critical foundation issues in my home, and I am beyond satisfied with the exceptional service they provided.

    From the initial inspection to the completion of the project, the team at CCS demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a commitment to excellence. They thoroughly assessed the foundation problems, explained the necessary repairs in detail, and offered a transparent and fair estimate.

    The work was carried out efficiently and within the agreed-upon timeframe. The crew displayed a high level of skill and attention to detail, ensuring that the repairs were done to the highest standard. The project manager kept me informed throughout the process, answering all my questions and addressing any concerns promptly.

    Thank you, CCS for a job well done!"

    "We have just completed a combination of relevelling, replacing 8 piles; adding 3 new ones and underpinning a brick "ring" foundation on our 70s home. I looked at about 6-8 companies utilising a variety of techniques before selecting CCS. I did so because they noticed things that NONE of the other builders etc noticed re risks around relevelling certain parts of our house. They were cost competitive, did everything manually so the site was clean and tidy. I have been very impressed throughout"

    "Our work consisted of replacing an under-designed retaining wall, and the associated 175m2 of driveway, all of which was at risk of crashing into our neighbours' house - poles doubled in size, quantity and depth. Wesley arrived within hours of initial contact for an initial assessment. This response level continued through out the build. As we were offsite during the work, we relied totally on CCS who took on a management role over the whole project, including engineering certification, and sub-contractors. Also, our tenant and neighbours were kept well informed at every stage, and site safety was well managed. For our part, we paid the invoices and progress payments as promptly as possible. The only delay suffered over the whole project was a bad weather week. I would thoroughly recommend Wesley and the CCS team for any work you may require."

    High recommendations by previous reviews also made my decision to engage CCS an easy one to make.
    They also did the job in a much shorter time than quoted for realising a big savings in the end.
    I would also recommend their services to anyone needing repiling work."

    "I had some partial re-levelling of the foundations in my house to be done and after a few quotes selected Core Civil Solutions. I dealt and mostly communicated with Wesley Short who was prompt and professional right through the entire process. I found CCS to be professional and proficient in their quote as well as excellent communication in explaining the situation and solution to re-level and stabilize the foundation.
    I was impressed by Chase who completed the project. He was reliable and had excellent communication and knowledge. The team were always prompt and listened to my multiple requests to resolve squeaky flooring. I have no hesitation in recommending CCS to anyone."

    Had Luke, Simon, Chase and the guys from CCS quote for a repair to piles under our bedroom floor.
    Was pleased with the quote and surprised to have the work completed before Christmas.
    Unfortunately a previous dodgy repair was found, but the team were able to make good on this repair and complete the quoted job as requested in the time allowed.
    Great effort from the CCS team, a great outcome.
    The work they completed was much appreciated.

    Cheers

    Really appreciated the integrity of CCSs rep (Luke) who came to our place to assess and quote for re-piling. He let us know our place didn't need re-piling, and some minor work would see our issue resolved.
    So while we didn't need to sign up CCS now, we value the honesty of this firm in setting us on a different (less expensive) path.
    Thanks so much!
