Water Industry

Woodhams is a Tier 2 MEICA contractor for the UK water industry, delivering specialist mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, control and automation engineering – from individual pump installations to complex, large-scale treatment and distribution projects.

MEICA Water Industry Engineering Experts

Woodhams supports water companies with a comprehensive range of engineering services, capable of delivering everything from small, targeted upgrades to major multi-million-pound infrastructure projects. Our specialist manufacturing and engineering teams bring extensive experience across water treatment, storage, and distribution environments, working to the highest safety and quality standards.

As a Tier 2 MEICA subcontractor, we deliver mechanical and electrical installation packages for Tier 1 framework partners under the AMP7 and AMP8 investment programmes, including work with the CMDP+ joint venture on the Southern Water AMP8 framework. Our packages typically cover process pipework, pumps and valves, access steelwork, MEICA installation and commissioning support on live wastewater and clean water sites.

A key advantage for our water industry clients is our ability to build off-site. By manufacturing and assembling components away from live environments, we significantly reduce disruption, site congestion, and programme risk. This approach improves efficiency, enhances safety, and allows for faster installation once works move on site.

We have worked on schemes delivered for Southern Water, Thames Water, Wessex Water, Severn Trent and Affinity Water, delivering CE/UKCA fabrication to Execution Class 2 (BS EN 1090) alongside integrated civil, mechanical and electrical engineering. All works are carried out by NVQ and CSCS certified tradespeople with proven experience on high-profile, regulated water services projects.

Comprehensive Water Engineering Services

Woodhams provides a fully integrated service tailored to the operational, regulatory, and commercial requirements of the water sector.

Our teams support projects from early-stage assessment through to installation, commissioning, and long-term maintenance. By combining off-site fabrication with coordinated on-site delivery, we reduce downtime, control costs, and improve overall project outcomes.

Our in-house capabilities allow us to maintain strict quality control, ensure compliance, and respond quickly to changing programme demands. Dedicated Project Managers oversee each stage, providing clear communication and consistent delivery throughout the project lifecycle.

Off-Site Manufacturing & Reliable Delivery

Woodhams’ off-site manufacturing capability is central to our success within the water industry. By fabricating and assembling components in controlled workshop environments, we improve quality, reduce installation time, and minimise operational disruption for our clients.

This approach also enhances health and safety, limits exposure to live assets, and allows works to be planned with greater certainty. Once on site, installations are carried out efficiently and safely by experienced teams who understand the demands of regulated environments.

With a strong track record on AMP7 and AMP8 schemes, integrated MEICA expertise, and a commitment to quality and compliance, Woodhams is a trusted MEICA subcontractor for water companies and Tier 1 contractors seeking reliable, cost-effective engineering solutions.
