Construction sites operate under strict safety protocols, tight schedules, and controlled access – standard recovery operators are often not qualified to work within them. D&G Assist holds NHSS17 and 17B certification, the National Highways Sector Scheme accreditation required to work safely and compliantly on construction sites and highways projects.

What NHSS Certification Means for You

This is not just a badge – it is audited proof that our operators understand site safety protocols, traffic management requirements, and the discipline needed to work around live construction operations without becoming a hazard themselves. When you need a recovery operator on an active site, this certification is often the difference between who can help and who cannot.

Recovery Within Site Boundaries

We recover construction vehicles, plant, and machinery from within site boundaries, coordinating with site managers and following site-specific safety procedures throughout. Whether it is a stuck dumper truck, a broken-down excavator, or a vehicle requiring movement between work areas, our operators understand how to get the job done without disrupting the wider site operation.

Plant Movement Between Sites

Beyond recovery, we transport plant and machinery between sites, to and from maintenance, or to storage – using low-loaders and specialist equipment suited to construction machinery.

Highways and Roadworks

Our NHSS17 certification also covers work on live highways schemes, including breakdown recovery from active roadworks and contraflow systems, coordinated with Highways England and site management to maintain safety for our operators, site workers, and the travelling public.

Who We Work With

Major contractors, plant hire companies, groundworks firms, and highways maintenance contractors trust us to operate safely and efficiently within their controlled environments, meeting the sector-specific requirements their insurers and site managers demand.

Available Around the Clock

Construction does not stop for breakdowns, and neither do we. Our 24/7/365 manned control centre coordinates emergency response for on-site incidents whenever they happen, minimising disruption to project timelines.

Why Choose D&G Assist

Certified to NHSS17 and 17B, ISO 9001, and PAS 43 standards, our operators bring over 30 years of recovery experience combined with the specific training construction environments demand. We understand that on a construction site, safety and compliance are not optional extras – they are the job.

What We Cover On Site

Vehicles being moved for temporary roadworks and road resurfacing
On-Site Movements

Vehicle Movements, Even for a Temporary Period

Some sites, particularly road resurfacing and temporary roadworks schemes planned many months in advance, can be brought to a sudden halt when cars and vans have not been moved by their owners. We can attend for the full duration of the works or on a call-out basis, using street lifters to relocate vehicles and, where necessary, move them back again once the works are complete.
