For 50 years Frank O'Gara & Sons have been renowned for services, professionalism and reliability. Our reputation for quickly understanding our clients needs and having both the capacity and capability to undertake contracts of all sizes, has earned us the privilege of developing long-term relationships with a broad client base. The above picture show our founder Frank O'Gara taken at the very beginning of the O'Gara story! Our main activities are Demolition, Excavation and Civil Engineering services to the construction industry.
Civil Engineering (or Civils for short) works are undertaken by combining our plant and labour resources with our in-house knowledge and experience and then, as the final ingredient, adding our specialist suppliers. This work may be a stand- alone contract or combined with any, or all, of our key disciplines, Demolition, Excavation, Bulk Excavation, Remediation and Recycling Soils and Aggregates. All projects offer their own set of problems - working in close proximity to live services, working close to residential areas, keeping water courses clean, phased hand overs for the clients on-going works.
The company operates a stand alone demolition service as part of a wider, total in-house operation involving removal, disposal and recycling of waste materials and overall site regeneration. Based in Manchester, the company is well placed to service the vast amount of urban regeneration presently being undertaken in the North-West region and beyond - covering demolition and dismantling across the uk. We are proud to have been associated with numerous prestigious projects. Modern demolition involves not only the use of skilled and trained operatives with the latest technology and equipment, but also a great deal of planning, co-ordination of services and attention to detail, no matter what the size of project.
The Excavation department operates hand-in-hand with the Company's in-house recycling facility to reduce the need for landfill and quarrying of new materials. From its site in Irlam, Manchester, O'Gara owns and operates a modern fleet of 8 wheeled tipper wagons and an impressive range of plant and attachments, for hire or contract work, to suit your requirements. All vehicles are in radio contact with our Irlam Control Centre and are fully supported by modern garage facilities which are fully equipped and manned by skilled fitters and engineers who regularly service and maintain the fleet.
