Last updated: 13 July 2026
These Terms and Conditions explain the rules for using the Mega Groundworks website and contacting us about our groundwork and civil engineering services.
By accessing or using this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, please stop using the website.
1. About Mega Groundworks
Mega Groundworks provides groundwork and civil engineering services for residential, commercial, industrial, and development projects.
In these terms, “Mega Groundworks”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to the business operating the website.
Website: megacivils.co.uk
Address: 23-25 Dencora Way, Luton LU3 3HP, United Kingdom

Mobile Number: 07777380833

The website currently describes the business as “Mega Groundworks, Inc.” The correct registered legal name, company number, and VAT number, where applicable, should be added before these terms are published. UK online-service rules require businesses to make certain identifying and contact information easily available.
2. Purpose of this website
This website provides general information about Mega Groundworks and the services we offer, including:
- Deep drainage installations
- Underground tank installations
- Footings and foundations
- Manhole installations
- Roads and sewers
- Concrete driveways
- Excavation and site preparation
- External groundwork
- Civil engineering support
The website also allows visitors to contact us, request a consultation, or ask for a quotation.
Information on the website is provided for general guidance only. It is not engineering, structural, drainage, planning, legal, or other professional advice for a specific project.
3. Website enquiries
Submitting a contact form, sending an email, or speaking with us by telephone does not automatically create a contract between you and Mega Groundworks.
We may need further information before confirming whether we can undertake the work, including:
- The project location
- Site access
- Plans and specifications
- Ground conditions
- Required timescales
- Drainage or structural drawings
- Planning or building-control requirements
- Details of existing underground services
- Site photographs or surveys
We may decline an enquiry where the project is outside our working area, outside our experience, unsafe, impractical, or unsuitable for our available resources.
4. Consultations and site visits
An initial telephone or website consultation may be offered free of charge.
A detailed site visit, survey, technical assessment, investigation, or measurement service may involve a fee. Any charge will be explained before the service is arranged.
A site visit does not guarantee that we will accept the project or provide a fixed quotation.
5. Quotations and estimates
Any quotation or estimate will be based on the information available at the time it is prepared.
Unless clearly stated otherwise:
- A quotation is valid only for the period shown on it
- Prices may change after the quotation expires
- A quotation covers only the work specifically described
- Additional work will be charged separately
- Materials, labour, plant, waste removal, permits, and taxes are included only where stated
- Provisional sums and estimated quantities may be adjusted
- Work cannot begin until the scope and commercial terms have been agreed
A website description, telephone discussion, email, photograph, or social media message should not be treated as a final quotation.
6. Project contracts
Every accepted project should be governed by a separate written quotation, order confirmation, subcontract, or construction agreement.
That agreement may include:
- The scope of work
- Project drawings and specifications
- Start and completion arrangements
- Contract price
- Deposit and payment schedule
- Materials and equipment
- Site access
- Client responsibilities
- Variations
- Delays
- Inspections
- Defects and remedial work
- Cancellation and termination
- Insurance and liability
- Dispute procedures
Where there is a conflict between these website terms and a signed project agreement, the signed project agreement will take priority for that project.
