Providing engineers and expert setting out, quality assurance and as-built surveying services.
About Us
Established in 1986, SEP has been the construction industry’s leader for on-site solutions for over thirty five years and counting. Bringing together the expertise and services of each of our divisions, we can provide a complete one-stop shop solution, fully catered to the individual needs of our clients and their projects.
Over the years, SEP has gone from strength to strength, continually evolving our existing divisions and branching out into new areas of the on-site construction industry. Housing our collective services and expertise under one roof, SEP are in a unique position that allows us to provide our clients with a specialist multi-faceted solution that can satisfy all of their projects’ requirements.
Traditionally, a client would rely on several suppliers to each work on a certain area of their project. This would involve the client speaking to each of these suppliers individually to coordinate all of these activities, which takes up their valuable time and resources. Our one-stop shop solution streamlines this process massively; the constant communication between our divisions and our extensive capabilities saves our clients’ time and resources, and ensures that all aspects of their project are completed on time, on spec and on budget. Our extensive resources and highly efficient infrastructure enables us to offer a variety of services including professional construction supervision services.
We are at the forefront of new technologies, developments and equipment meaning we can offer the very latest equipment in our shop including the most precise total stations. We also provide the most reliable, professional and affordable survey equipment services in the industry as we offer survey equipment repair and survey equipment hire. We have teamed up with some of the best brand names in the industry to not only provide the best equipment possible but at the most competitive price. We are Authorised Trimble, FARO, Nikon, Spectra Geospatial & SECO distributors. We have our own Trimble authorised service station with specialist technicians trained in Europe by Trimble to provide support and assistance for any servicing, damages and technical issues or faults to ensure you receive minimum downtime on site.
We pride ourselves on providing you with a solution, not just a service. Our after-sales support team have years of experience on-site using the exact equipment that we sell. Our experts are always on hand to provide technical support, advice on how best to use the equipment, add-ons and extras to get the most out of your time and the equipment.
