About Wood Hall & Heward

Wood, Hall & Heward (WHH) provides specialist knowledge, support and tailored engineering for civil engineering, construction and infrastructure projects across the UK inland waterways. We’re not just a marine plant-hire business, we’re a specialist engineering partner that helps contractors work safely, efficiently and confidently on the water. From barge specification to access planning, logistics and project support, we combine decades of practical experience with a deep understanding of how waterways really work. We are also passionate about modal shift and sustainability, and have supported clients in taking freight off the road and onto the water — using our barges to reduce both road miles and emissions. Our fleet includes tugs, barges, workboats, pontoons and floating cranes, with the flexibility to support almost and job on water. Whether it’s demolition, muck away, piling and civils, crane operations, structural inspections, vegetation management or material deliveries, we provide the on-water support to make it work. We deliver practical, reliable solutions that keep projects safe, efficient and on schedule. We’re known for being straightforward, reliable and collaborative. Some clients bring extensive civils expertise, others are new to working on the water — we provide the specialist waterways knowledge that ensures the whole project runs smoothly. What we offer: • Barge and workboat provision • Specialist waterways knowledge and tailored engineering support • Marine logistics and water-freight solutions • Support for civils, piling and infrastructure works • Wharf access, material handling and floating plant • Safe and efficient site operations across the inland network If your project involves water, access constraints or logistics challenges, we help make the difficult parts manageable and the whole project safer and smoother.
