Jobs we have finished.

Wells, septic tanks and ring chambers from the last two years. Every ring came from our yard in Embilipitiya, and our own team set them in place.

Wells

Wells lined
with our rings.

The first ring goes down by crane to the bottom of the pit, and each ring after it is lowered onto the one below, until the top ring stands above the ground.

Septic tanks and chambers

Septic tanks,

Cover slabs

Cover slabs, cast
for each job.

Made in our yard: a steel mesh laid across the whole slab, then the concrete over it, with a square or round opening where the job needs one. Once the slab is cast the steel cannot be seen, so these photos show it first.

Cover slabs for every ring size
