Extended Range to Support Water & Utilities Contractors

3rd, November 2025

Manhole

Back to articles

Our customers tell us they choose Conquip for quality, best-in-class equipment and a wide range of dependable services – in short, we’re there at every stage in a project.

We already work with water supply and sewerage utility companies across the UK, supporting their contractors with temporary works designs, shoring boxes and services, as well as a range of site management equipment.

For water contractors, this support now extends even further through our new partnership with Pro Mech, as we now offer an expanded excavation support range of equipment and services, strengthening our ability to help site teams maintain safety, environmental compliance and productivity – and so keep critical projects on schedule.

This alliance with Pro Mech means we’re bringing the best that both companies can offer to the UK market from a total of seven regional depot locations. Customers will still receive the same high-quality equipment and service from both companies.

A Broader Range of Shoring Solutions

Our combined trench shoring ranges give contractors the flexibility to work on all projects with a wide variety of ground conditions.

  • More Boxes: Additional shoring box options through Pro Mech, including Mini and Midi sizes, in addition to Conquip’s existing shoring boxes.
  • Frames and Hydraulic Braces: A range of frames and braces for deep excavation, along with a design service that produces the designs for customers in one working day.
  • Expanded Accessories: Hydraulic pumps, manhole safety platforms, gas detectors, escape kits and more, to create safer working environments.
  • Extra Strut Options: Meet varying pipe laying and site requirements.
  • Standard and Bespoke Shoring Designs and On-Site Support: Take advantage of design packages on a quick turnaround, including engineering drawings, calculations, risk assessments and check certificates, along with a technical support team who’ll visit your site to supervise and help solve on-the-job challenges. These two services support your site team to assemble, install, use and extract boxes safely and compliantly.

Plus, we go beyond Trench Shoring by equipping the everyday running of your sites with our comprehensive Site Management range.

Technical Guidance

We know that well-trained teams make safer, compliant and more efficient sites. That’s why every Conquip product comes with a detailed technical user guide, including pre-use checklists for operator confidence. Additionally, there are free step-by-step videos that guide contractors through the setup, installation, and removal of our Trench, Manhole and Drag boxes.

To support teams further, we offer on-site product training through our Conquip Covered service. Benefit from face-to-face sessions that walk site teams through assembly, installation and extraction.

Reliable Service When Speed Matters

Water mains maintenance never waits, and our services support you when you really need them.

  • Opening Hours: Conquip and Pro Mech customer support teams are available Monday to Friday, and Pro Mech is available to support emergency call-outs around the clock with a rapid and efficient deployment service, to ensure vital utilities and services are kept serviceable.
  • Fast Delivery: With an in-house transport team and a combined seven regional locations across the UK, equipment can be delivered as quickly as next day, or you can collect for an even faster turnaround.
  • Flexible Hire: Short-term hire options offer budget flexibility without compromising reliability.

Supporting Projects Across the UK

Read the case study for Persimmon Homes Development. 

“Having just moved over to Conquip as our shoring partner, we’re very impressed. The temporary works and design team are quick and efficient, and the ordering process and customer service for the boxes we needed were seamless – you don’t have to give them very long to get the order here on time. On our Persimmon Homes project, they have delivered exactly what they said.”
Graham Cheeseman, Drainage Construction Manager, CJL Construction
