Is groundworks a division 42 or division 43 activity?
Both codes exist and the split is genuinely fuzzy. Site preparation and excavation is 43120. Broader civil engineering work fits 42990. Many groundworks contractors choose 42990, because their scope covers drainage, roads and structures. Others use 43120 for enabling works. Listing both is common and allowed within the four-code limit. Nothing is enforced on the choice. It is a self-declared classification.
