About Us…

CS (Civils & Groundworks) Ltd was founded in 2012 by fellow engineers Steve Openshaw and Ali Nazeri, working with a small number of main contractors from its original head office in Leigh, Lancashire. 

Self-funded and by reinvesting its profits, the firm grew sustainably and steadily in size, establishing itself as one of the leading civil engineering and groundworks contractors in the region.  

Aiming for year on year growth and owning the majority of its plant and machinery, the business has completed over £100m of sub-contracted work on over 200 projects for an established and reliable client base.

From the outset, enormous emphasis was placed on creating a thoroughly safe and efficient environment for everyone connected with the business. This ethos has created a highly respected reputation for providing a diligent, reliable, low maintenance service.  

Following the sad passing of Mr Nazeri in 2019, Steve completed a buyout of his friends shares and continued to expand the business sustainably. 

To support this growth Gary Chadwick, Danny Attersall, Jo Durkin and Jon Corcoran were appointed to the Board of Directors thereby enhancing the experienced Senior Management Team.

In 2020, the company moved to larger offices adjacent to the M61 in Bolton though retains a core interest in its original hometown by continuing their long term sponsorship of Leigh Leopards rugby league club, and supporting a number of other local sporting clubs and social value enterprises. 

The business also holds a multitude of industry standard accreditations, and a robust policy, procedures, safety and quality assurance structure.
