Landscaping Renovation - Magor
📍 Location: Magor
🛠️ Services Provided:
We were tasked with a full garden transformation designed to create a modern, low-maintenance outdoor space that complemented the client's home extension. The project began with a complete site clearance and reshaping of the garden to improve layout and usability.
We installed a new wrap-around fence for added privacy, laid a spacious patio area perfect for outdoor entertaining, and completed the space with fresh turf and carefully selected planting. The result is a clean, contemporary garden that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living — tailored to the client’s lifestyle and designed for easy upkeep.

Large Scale Land Reshaping - Trellech
📍 Location: Trellech

🛠️ Services Provided:
Our team was brought in to reshape a steep, 6-acre field that had become unmanageable for the client due to its challenging gradient. The slope made mowing, access, and general maintenance extremely difficult.
Using precision cut-and-fill techniques, our skilled operators regraded the land to create level, accessible tracks throughout the field. This not only improved functionality but also enhanced safety and usability. The transformation has allowed the client to confidently maintain and enjoy the space for the first time — turning a previously inaccessible area into a practical and usable asset.
💬Testimonial:
"DJS was reliable and professional; they took our vague brief and were able to make the space so much better than I thought. Would highly recommend!"
River Clearance - Abercynon
📍 Location: Abercynon

🛠️ Services Provided:
Following severe storms in Abercynon, our team at DJS Civil Engineering Ltd was called in to assist with an urgent river clearance operation. Heavy rainfall had washed significant debris into the watercourse, leading to blockages and contamination concerns.
As a fully insured contractor with a valid waste carrier licence, we carried out a safe and thorough removal of all debris from the river and surrounding banks. The area was then cleaned and restored, including levelling and stabilisation work to prevent further disruption.
In line with environmental best practices, we also implemented pollution prevention measures and managed the presence of invasive plant species to protect the local ecosystem and water quality.
💬Testimonial:
"DJS Civil Engineering Ltd was really professional and efficient, we were impressed with their work ethic and their approach to this tricky job. Their high standards towards H&S means we will definitely be using them in the future."
Padel Courts - Cwmbran
📍 Location: Cwmbran
🛠️ Services Provided:
DJS Civil Engineering Ltd was proud to be involved in the construction of new panel courts for the local community. Our role focused on the essential groundwork preparation to ensure a long-lasting, high-quality finish.
Our team carried out a full excavation of the site, followed by precise levelling and compaction to create a stable and even foundation. Working closely with the wider construction team, we ensured the base was ready for the installation of the court surfaces — providing a safe, durable space for sports and recreation.
This project reflects our commitment to supporting local communities through reliable civil engineering solutions.
Deep Drainage - Bristol
📍 Location: Bristol
🛠️ Services Provided:
DJS Civil Engineering Ltd was appointed to carry out the installation of deep drainage using an open box cut technique. Due to the depth and complexity of the excavation, health and safety was a top priority throughout the project.
Our experienced operators delivered clean, precise cuts using the open box method — chosen specifically to minimise risk and maintain trench stability during the works. This approach ensured safe access, reduced potential hazards, and allowed for efficient installation of the drainage system in line with regulatory standards.
The result was a professionally executed drainage solution delivered with safety, accuracy, and long-term durability in mind.
