TCI Construction · Sectors

Eight kinds of buyer, one workshop behind them.

The silicone and polyurethane are the same. The questions aren't. A precast yard asks about pour counts, an architect about texture intent, a conservation officer about the original. Each sector page is written around those questions.

How to use this page

Find the page that sounds like your day job.

Different concrete tooling types arranged across one small workshop
One workshop serving precast, landscape and heritage work

Pick the sector that's closest to how you work. If you sit between two — a precaster who does a lot of heritage work, a landscape architect who also specifies cladding — read both. The tooling underneath overlaps heavily.

We split the sectors into two families: the precast trade that casts the concrete, and the architecture and specification side that decides what it should look like.

Not sure where you fit?

Ring and describe the job.

Plenty of enquiries don't fit a sector neatly. A photograph of the piece and a line about the mix is enough to start.
