B&A services are delivered through three complementary core divisions, where the sum is greater than the individual parts. Our capability to provide seamless transition between divisions means we offer unrivalled expertise, professionalism and reliability across an increasingly complex and sensitive regulatory environment.
Contracting
B&A Contracting provides remediation, earthworks and land regeneration services, bringing together key skills from across the Group to highlight our unrivalled knowledge of an increasingly complex and sensitive regulatory environment.
We are proud to be the trusted choice for major construction and infrastructure projects across the south west. Our commitment to excellence, reliability, and industry-leading service has earned us long-standing partnerships with some of the nation's most respected developers, contractors, and engineering firms.

We can provide both waste disposal and waste recycling options for problematic waste types including, asbestos impacted soils, contaminated soils and industrial waste. Our disposal sites and recycled aggregates offer a sustainable alternative to traditional land filling.
