Site-ready construction workers
As a construction staffing agency, we supply main contractors, subcontractors and developers who need people on site who pass the gate check first time. That means a valid CSCS card for the right occupation, the PPE the site requires and enough experience to work safely without constant supervision. We check all of this before confirming a booking, not on the morning. We work across new build housing, commercial schemes, refurbishment and civil engineering.
Construction labour demand moves with the programme. Groundworks need labourers and plant operators early on, the frame and envelope bring in steel fixers, carpenters and scaffolders, and fit-out shifts the demand towards dryliners, electricians, plumbers and decorators. We plan with you around those phases so the right trades arrive when the work is ready for them. For supervisory roles we look for SSSTS or SMSTS training and a track record on similar projects.
Plant operators are checked for the categories on their CPCS or NPORS card, and we ask about recent hours on each machine. Labourers are matched by the type of site they know, because someone from a housing site may need extra guidance on a live hospital refurbishment. If the programme slips or accelerates, call us and we will adjust numbers to match. We can also supply traffic marshals, banksmen, fire watch operatives and clean-down labourers for the final weeks before handover.

Why contractors book through us
Cards checked before the gate
CSCS, CPCS and NPORS cards are checked for occupation, level and expiry before a booking is confirmed, so workers are not turned away by your site team.
Planned around your programme
We plan trade numbers around the phases of your build, from groundworks through to fit-out, and adjust bookings whenever the programme changes.
Supervisors with the right training
Supervisors and site managers are put forward with SSSTS or SMSTS training where the role needs it, along with relevant experience on comparable projects.
Paid properly through payroll
Workers are paid through our payroll with tax and National Insurance deducted, so you avoid the risks that come with informal labour and unclear payment chains.
Construction site compliance
Most UK sites require every worker to hold a CSCS card, or a partner scheme card, that matches their occupation. We check this before deployment, along with CPCS or NPORS categories for plant operators. We also complete right to work checks and confirm PPE requirements. Your principal contractor's induction still applies on day one, and we make sure workers know where and when to attend it and what documents to bring.

Frequently asked questions
Do all your construction workers have CSCS cards?
Workers we supply for construction sites hold a valid CSCS card or partner scheme card appropriate to their occupation, unless you have told us your site does not require one. We check the card type and expiry before booking. If a role needs a specific card, such as a skilled worker or supervisor card, tell us when you book.
Can you supply a full gang for a package of work?
Yes. We can put together gangs of labourers or trades for a defined package, such as groundworks, drylining or a sparkle clean before handover. If you need a chargehand to lead the gang and report to your site manager, we can include one. Tell us the scope and duration and we will price it.
How are construction workers paid?
Workers are paid through our payroll with tax and National Insurance deducted. You pay us an hourly or daily charge rate based on approved timesheets. Rates differ by trade and by whether workers bring their own tools, and they are agreed in writing before the booking starts.
What if a worker is not up to standard?
Tell us as soon as you can, ideally on the first day. We will speak to the worker, arrange a replacement where possible and review what went wrong so it does not happen again. Our terms explain how charges work when a worker is released early in a booking.
Do you supply plant operators with their own machines?
No, we supply operators only. Plant is usually provided by you or a plant hire company. We check that each operator holds the right CPCS or NPORS category for the machine, such as a 360 excavator or forward tipping dumper, and ask about their recent experience on it.
