CKR serves utility companies in the region by helping maintain their infrastructure, and in the coming years we will be expanding the business with the support of our major clients. The majority of our work is for United Utilities via Tier 1 contractors such as Network Plus and the M Group. Other clients include OCU Group and Saphire Utility Solutions. Our services include the repair and maintenance of water mains, installing water meters, repairing leaking private water mains, and backfill and reinstatement work.
