Some of our work

More Case Studies

Directly employed people on site

You get our own dedicated team on site, from operatives and engineers to supervisors and commercial support, all used to working together. That matters when the site changes or a question needs a straight answer. Our supervisors keep our work organised day to day, with engineering, commercial and operational support behind them when decisions need sorting.

Work across four main sectors

Residential development remains a major part of our work, alongside commercial and industrial sites, civils and highways schemes, and formally procured public-sector projects. Each sector asks for something slightly different, from housing infrastructure and commercial access to highways details and public-sector scrutiny. Our sector pages show where Ateb fits and what buyers can expect from us.

Project experience at a practical scale

Our project record now covers more than 30 projects. See completed and in-progress work across residential, commercial and civil engineering projects.

Accreditations and workforce competence

We hold Constructionline Gold, CHAS, SMAS, ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001. Operatives are CSCS carded and plant operators CPCS certified. These accreditations support the safe, organised way our teams are expected to work on site and highlight the high standards and competencies we set as a business.

Groundworks and civil engineering services

We can take on the wider groundworks package or a single service, depending on what the project needs.
