Foundations Wexford
Foundation contractors working from our own Wexford yard — excavation, steel fixing, shuttering and pour, built to your engineer's design.
Foundations Contractors in Wexford
Looking for foundations contractors in Wexford? Rayco Civils is an Irish-owned civil works company delivering specialist foundations packages throughout County Wexford — for housing developments, one-off homes, commercial projects and infrastructure works.
We install strip, raft and pad foundations for one-off houses, housing developments and commercial buildings. All foundation work is set out from engineer's drawings, cast with certified ready-mix concrete and inspected to current Irish building regulations.
Foundations work in Wexford is typically our home county — housing developments, farm civils and full site packages. We price and programme each Wexford job around those conditions rather than applying a standard rate, and we cover Gorey, Enniscorthy, Wexford Town, New Ross, Rosslare, Bunclody and the surrounding areas.
Whether you're a main contractor, developer, architect or private client in Wexford, we provide clear pricing, professional site management and proper RAMS documentation from day one.
Foundations built to the engineer's design
We're the contractor, not the designer. Foundation type, depth, reinforcement and concrete strength come from your engineer or certifier — we excavate, prepare, fix steel, shutter and pour to that design, and we don't specify foundation systems ourselves.
In practice that means we work off the drawings and any site investigation information, flag anything on site that doesn't match what's drawn, and hold for inspection where the design or Building Control process requires it.
Foundation types we pour in Wexford
Strip and trench-fill footings for houses and extensions, pad foundations and bases for steel-frame and portal-frame buildings, raft slabs where the design calls for a spread load, and level concrete bases for sheds, machinery and modular units.
The Wexford ground mix matters here: free-draining sand and gravel behaves very differently in an open trench to soft clay, and shallow rock changes both dig method and cost. What's under the site is what sets the real programme.
Foundations as part of the full groundworks package
Rayco Civils is based at Unit 6, Cullentra Lane, Cullentra, Monamolin, Co. Wexford (Y25 F5P6), so Wexford sites are served directly from our own yard — plant, crews and materials all mobilise locally.
Most Wexford clients take foundations as part of a wider package — site strip and dig, drainage and ducting, sub-base and then foundations and slab — which avoids the gaps and finger-pointing that come from splitting substructure between trades.

Foundations Wexford — FAQs
Do you design the foundations?+
No. Foundation design is the engineer's responsibility. We build to the drawings and specification supplied, and we'll raise anything found on site that appears to conflict with the design.
What foundation work do you carry out in Wexford?+
Excavation to level, blinding, steel fixing, shuttering, pouring and finishing for strip, trench-fill, pad and raft foundations, plus concrete bases for sheds, steel frames and modular units.
Can you do foundations for a steel-frame or modular building?+
Yes — pad bases and level slabs for steel-frame and modular installation are routine work for us, set out to the supplier's base drawing and holding-down bolt layout.
What do you need to quote foundations?+
Foundation and site layout drawings, any site investigation report, the site location and your intended start date. If drawings aren't ready yet, call and we'll tell you what's needed.
