SECTORS
As an island nation, marine and civil engineering shapes much of our lives. Due to this and the four decades of experience our specialist involvement spans many major sectors across the UK.
Rail
Trading as specialists in the rail industry since 1989, we are experts in delivering challenging marine infrastructure solutions in ways which minimise disruption to rail services.
The rail sector division within Kaymac specialises in technical delivery, innovative expertise and sustainable solutions whilst demonstrating best practice, often against the clock during rail stoppages. When a rail track runs over a culvert, river or watercourse, Kaymac are experts in temporary works, inspection survey, repair and protection of structures in a watercourse. We are RISQS audited and verified; all Kaymac operatives are PTS (Personal Track Safety) trained to current legislation as specialist sub-contractors.

We regularly provide underwater lock gate inspections including condition reports for cills, cill rubbers, quoins, mitres, pintles, bolts, masonry and all subsea components both visually where possible or by touch to test for integrity, strength and fouling. We are also DENSO Pile Wrapping approved installers.

Since we were established, Kaymac have been contracted by power stations around the UK. This includes being involved in the design and installation of a cofferdam and fish deterrent system at the largest gas fired power station in Europe, Pembroke Power Station. In order to reduce the amount of fish entering the cooling water intakes and entering the fish return system, we supplied sustainable solutions to this project. We have also been involved in the commissioning of Hinckley Point B and early contractor involvement a Hinckley Point C, as well as being contracted for marine civil works for the decommissioning of Magnox sites.

Environment
Climate change is increasing pressure on maritime, coastal, and waterway infrastructure and assets. This means our clients National Resource Wales, The Environment Agency and their delivery partners need a contractor whose approach focuses on sustainable solutions such as repairing and minimising current and evolving risks. Our approach towards environmental projects involves us using the natural environment to help reduce coastal erosion and river flooding, whilst protecting the wildlife and natural environment.
