Virtua have been a part of The UK Government’s Building Digital UK scheme (BDUK) for the past 5 years. The scheme has been ongoing since 2013 and so far has helped to bring superfast broadband to more then 5 million premises.
As a result, more than 96% of the UK can order superfast services today. Our teams are busy keeping the UK connected by surveying, designing and building and maintaining new and existing networks for all the major partners in the industry.
Our engineers work throughout the UK, in major cities such as London, Glasgow, Newcastle and Portsmouth. Supporting our clients, liaising with local councils and managing agents to install ultrafast fibre broadband to residents.

From binge watching your latest show, to sending flowers to Grandparents, ultrafast full fibre broadband has played an important role in helping us through the Pandemic. But more vitally, enabling work and business to carry on by allowing people to work remotely.
With around 40% of people already working remotely it seems that employers are generally supportive of this and as such will become the norm. This is compared to only 5% working remotely prior to the pandemic. Not only does a full fibre infrastructure mean a boost to employment, but its also beneficial to the environment. In 2021 around 2 million people could be working mainly from home. This would mean 300 million less commuter trips and 360,000 tonnes less CO2 emissions every year.
Our Virtua experts can offer wayleave support, install passive networks, multiple/single dwellings and full testing capabilities on PON networks including OTDR/IOLM testing.
Our installation abilities are second to none, from abseiling, splicing, PIA to civils we offer a turn key solution. All the while keeping our safety and that of the public paramount. See more here.
Full fibre rollout will touch every aspect of our lives, which is why our Virtua FTTx teams continue to install this vital service 24/7.
