At Powell Contracts Limited, we provide a complete range of groundworks and civil engineering services across Brecon and the wider Powys region. With years of hands-on experience and a strong fleet of in-house machinery and strong sub contractor relationships, we deliver practical, high-quality results — from first dig to final finish.
Our services cover every stage of ground preparation and structural groundwork. Whether you’re building a new home, upgrading infrastructure, or reshaping land for agricultural or commercial use, we have the skills and equipment to get it done efficiently and safely.
-
Drainage Systems
We install basic site drainage systems including surface water channels, soakaways, and pipework for both rainwater and foul waste. Knee guards and proper outlets are included to prevent water pooling or site damage. Whether as part of a new build or landscaping project, we manage water efficiently and in compliance with site demands
-
Foundations & Concrete works
We handle all aspects of foundation work, from digging and pouring footings to laying full concrete bases. We can include insulation installation and integrate waste pipe runs where needed. Every foundation is laid with accuracy and care, meeting structural and regulatory standards for long-term performance.
-
Site preparation
We provide complete site prep services, including topsoil stripping, stockpiling, or removal off-site if required. Ground is levelled and compacted, with clean stone bases laid to create a solid platform ready for build works. Whether preparing a domestic plot or a large-scale agricultural site, we ensure a clean, well-managed start to your project.
-
Fencing
We install all types of fencing, including post and rail, concrete post systems, and featheredge boarding for a clean, durable finish. Concrete posts are used for longevity and to prevent rot, especially in exposed or damp areas. We also offer stock fencing with tensioned netting and timber posts for agricultural or perimeter use.
-
Bulk Haulage
For muck, stone, aggregates, and other bulk materials, we operate our NC 616 16-tonne dump trailer, providing an efficient option for site clearances, earthworks, and material transport. Need machinery, bales, or farm equipment moved? We provide a reliable transport service using our kane low loader — ideal for farms and contractors moving gear between sites.
-
Landscaping & turfing
Our landscaping services include topsoil removal and reinstatement, sub-base preparation, turf laying, and final levelling. We can reshape outdoor areas to suit garden plans, new builds, or commercial projects, leaving a clean and ready-to-use finish.
