We handle planning, construction and handover, so you deal with one team from the first site visit to the final inspection.<\/p>\n<div class=\"grid\">\n<article><h3>Road construction<\/h3>\n<p>We build and upgrade access roads for counties, estates, farms, schools and private owners. Our work covers bush clearing, earthworks, grading and compaction, murram and gravel surfacing, and tarmac roads.<\/p>\n<p>Each road is set out and levelled with proper camber and side drains so it sheds water and lasts through the rainy season.<\/p><\/article>\n<article><h3>Water supply and pipelines<\/h3>\n<p>We lay water mains and distribution lines for towns, institutions and community water projects. We handle trench excavation, pipe laying and jointing, valve chambers, and pressure testing before commissioning.<\/p>\n<p>We also build tank stands and connect storage tanks to the network, so water reaches the people who need it.<\/p><\/article>\n<article><h3>Drainage and culverts<\/h3>\n<p>Poor drainage is what destroys roads and floods compounds. We construct storm-water drains, lined channels, box and pipe culverts, headwalls and outfalls to carry water away safely.<\/p>\n<p>Where slopes are at risk, we add erosion protection such as stone pitching, gabions and grassing.<\/p><\/article>\n<article><h3>Boreholes and water storage<\/h3>\n<p>We take on borehole works from site selection support through to equipping, including pump installation, power connection, and the pipework that links the borehole to your storage.<\/p>\n<p>We also build water pans and install tanks of the right size for your household, farm, school or business.<\/p><\/article>\n<article><h3>Project management<\/h3>\n<p>If you already have designs and a budget, we can run the project for you: preparing programmes and bills of quantities, sourcing materials and subcontractors, supervising the site, and tracking costs against the budget.<\/p>\n<p>You receive regular progress reports with photos, so you always know where the money and the time are going.<\/p><\/article>\n<article><h3>Building works<\/h3>\n<p>We construct residential and commercial buildings, extensions and renovations, from foundations and structure through to roofing, plastering, finishes and external works.<\/p>\n<p>Work is supervised against the approved drawings, and we hand over with an inspection and a snag list, so nothing is left unfinished.<\/p><\/article>\n<\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n<section id=\"why\" class=\"why\"><div class=\"wrap\">\n<h2>Why Karrtel<\/h2>\n<p class=\"lead\">Choosing a contractor is a big decision.
