Sustainability

Our civil engineering design teams ensure that projects are delivered with the highest levels of inherent affordable sustainability, using standards and practices such as BREEAM, Code for Sustainable Homes, Eco Homes and SUDS. We embed sustainability into our designs and work with architects and all the project design team to create sustainable buildings. Our in-house BREEAM/Code for Sustainable Homes assessors and BREEAM Accredited Professionals can guide you through the process and help you gain valuable points towards a BREEAM accreditation. Hydrock was selected by the Homes and Communities Agency to feature in their document the Code for Sustainable Homes, Case Studies.

"There were a number of challenges on this difficult site, but we were extremely pleased with the way Hydrock performed - a good design solution and good liaison and negotiations with all parties involved. The project was effectively managed by Hydrock, delivered on time and within budget."
