A Word From The Office

"We build like it's our own home."

Island Formwork & Construction was founded on a simple belief: Guernsey deserves a specialist contractor that treats every pour, every wall and every foundation with the same care as if it were their own.

With 70+ combined years of experience, we focus on what we do best — formwork, reinforced concrete and drainage — from single retaining walls to major civil engineering pours for the island's public bodies. The scale changes. The standard doesn't.
