Case Study:
Old Barn Nurseries
The Challenge: Old Barn Nurseries approached us in 2004 to build a shop with an incorporated outside area to showcase its plants, trees, sheds and paving products. It was already October and Old Barn needed the shop ready for the Christmas crowds.
The Work: We carried out extensive drainage work, lighting installation and ducting, as well as installing a sprinkler system to water the plants and trees. The whole 3,000m2 shop area was covered in red and black SMA surface course with block-paved connecting footpaths.
The Results: The contract was completed in just 6 weeks at a cost of £210,000 and we have since carried out further projects for the nursery.

About us
Batten Civil Engineering Limited is one of the leading road marking, surfacing, civil engineering and property development firms in the South East. We are very much a family-run company and many of our employees and customers have been with us for much of our 46 years in business. Over that time we’ve also built up strong relationships with our suppliers and enjoy special rates and discounts from them. That’s great news for our customers, because it means we can keep our quotes competitive. Our track record for delivering projects on time, at reasonable cost and above all to a high standard ensures that 70% of our business comes from existing clients. The environment We’re very aware of the effect our construction work can have on the environment and aim to minimise any impact on local surroundings. Rather than discard surplus materials, we crush up about 6,000 tonnes of leftover concrete, hard core or tarmac every year, which can be reused for future jobs. Wherever possible we also try to use recycled materials from our suppliers. We try to be as open as possible with our customers and we are happy to send you copies of our published accounts or put you in contact with existing clients. We have a public liability insurance for £10,000,000. |
