Mark saw-cut lines, lengths and depths
Mark cut lines, lengths and the intended sections. Include required depth and material thickness where known, identifying estimates as estimates. Explain whether the work forms part of a service trench, pavement alteration or another defined package.
Describe the slab, pavement or kerb profile
Show the pavement, slab or profile and the space available for equipment. Include levels, access restrictions and nearby structures. For a kerb or barrier, send its profile and proposed alteration so it can be reviewed separately from a general slab cut.
Coordinate staged access and traffic
Explain project traffic arrangements, occupied areas and staged access. Share the programme and any work windows, including setup and handover. Attendance is confirmed through the office rather than assumed from the existence of a service page.
Separate cutting from excavation and reinstatement
Cutting, excavation, handling, removal and reinstatement need clear scope boundaries. Include slurry or waste arrangements and the party responsible for each task. Mark information still being investigated, particularly the services and structure affected by the proposed work.
Your enquiry checklist
- Marked cut layout, lengths and depths
- Material profile and thickness where known
- Working access and staging arrangements
- Removal, waste and reinstatement scope
Send what you know and identify details still being confirmed. These guides help describe a project; the agreed site-specific scope determines the work.
