WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Just a quick note to let you know that the team you’ve had onsite this week, but also all who have previously been, are some of the best contractors that I’ve delt with for some time. Polite, hardworking and very accommodating.
There appears to be a culture of worksite health and safety that’s right up there. Over the past weeks I have not had a single issue I have had to deal with, so great job to the guys.

As asphalt sub-contractors, we rely heavily on quality basecourse preparation. Our ideal scenario includes basecourse ready on schedule with completed inspections, confirmed levels, and a solid, uniform surface. We’re fortunate to work with many excellent contractors, none more so than Knaggs Construction. Working primarily on commercial projects, they’ve refined their approach to make our job genuinely straightforward. Their use of skidsteer and box blade equipment with machine control delivers exceptionally accurate levels. Their basecourse finish creates an ideal surface—consistent, well-compacted, and ready for paving.
This precision translates into superior outcomes: excellent final surfaces, high ride quality, and no common issues like quantity disputes or delays.
Simply put, Knaggs Construction makes our work easier and the results better. Their professionalism makes them a pleasure to work with.

I want to express our thanks and appreciation for the great work undertaken by Knaggs to complete the cart paths and car park. Not only that, but our Project Manager spoke very highly of your solution-oriented approach to tying in the arrivals area section. We wouldn’t have been able to complete this on time without your help. Thank you. The feedback from the members on the cart paths, as it was last time, is full of praise and satisfaction with the workmanship. There also appears to have been fewer, if any, cracks, which is fantastic. Please pass on our thanks to Mike as well. He is a great foreman and very good to work with. The car park is a vast improvement, too.
We look forward to working together in the future when we next complete some additional cart paths. Realistically, this may not be for another 2-3 years, but on our radar.
