DEFENCE SERVICES AT TOWER CONSTRUCTION

DOMESTIC SERVICES AT TOWER CONSTRUCTION

Residential refurbishments have been our speciality for many years. Though our company has since evolved to focus heavily on commercial builds, we still undertake choice domestic projects in Essex and the surrounding counties.

Tower Construction provides construction and refurbishment services within the defence sector across the South East. We began working within this environment in 2023 and have continued to expand our capability and delivery scope year on year. Due to the nature of defence works, we are unable to disclose specific locations or detailed project information, but we take pride in delivering reliable, professional outcomes in secure and regulated settings.

Proven Expertise

SECURE DELIVERY & COMPLIANCE

 

Defence projects demand more than construction capability they require proven competence in working within security-controlled environments, alongside strict health & safety and environmental standards. Our teams operate under robust systems and controlled working practices, ensuring works are planned, documented and delivered safely with a high level of professionalism at every stage.

We are experienced in working as both a subcontractor and a main contractor, collaborating effectively with MOD stakeholders and Tier 1 delivery partners to meet the governance and operational requirements of defence sites.

our
projects

From brand new homes to large-scale commercial engagements, Tower Group has undertaken a vast range of projects since our inception more than 15 years ago.

You can view a selection of our most striking and successful builds and renovations below, including those undertaken by our specialist railway contractors.

Commercial

1 Totman

Tower Construction and Tower Electrical worked closely with Railscape to design and deliver the conversion of a former Saab garage into their primary headquarters.

Commercial

15 Totman

Tower Construction was appointed following a referral based on the successful completion of a similar build at 1 Totman Close for Railscape.

Residential New Homes

Gardeners Farm

Tower Construction was appointed as Principal Contractor following a devastating fire at Gardeners Farm, which destroyed both the original dwelling and the neighbouring barn.

Tower Construction won a competitive tender to build a 3-storey block of three flats known as Stamford Court, on a highly constrained site in Romford. The project was completed to a very high standard, with no significant defects. Arron Vickery and his team were consistently professional, demonstrating excellent technical knowhow and proactive problem-solving skills. The team’s interpersonal and communication skills were equally impressive, with the contractors maintaining good neighbourly relations with everyone affected by the works. All contractual issues were dealt with perfectly transparently, making it straightforward to monitor costs and progress. I would be delighted to recommend Tower Construction unreservedly for similar (and more complex) projects.

Architect Peter Wislocki - Managing Director iARCH

Tower has been working with us since 2019, successfully completing the design and construction of one of our offices in Rayleigh, Essex. We were highly impressed with the efficiency of the project, from the initial design phase to the final construction. Tower Construction has now become one of our main construction suppliers, providing us with valuable support for our building and maintenance projects in the rail industry. We anticipate continuing our partnership with them on future projects and foresee a long-term collaboration together.

James Phipps Rail Scape -

Our business suffered a large fire in December 2022 destroying the kitchen in the back part of our garden centre. We contacted Tower construction to secure the site originally as we had worked with Arron Vickery the director 15 years prior as he was part of the team that built the garden centre originally. From start to finish we've been extremely happy with the Tower team especially working with Lewis the site manager who has worked with us to get the kitchen and garden centre up and running as it should be and we are extremely happy with what the electrical and construction team have achieved.
