Working with us
Site teams tell it straight.
They price properly, they tell you early when a drawing does not work, and the steel turns up in the order we asked for. That is most of my job done.
Project manager, Regional main contractor, Sunderland
Their detailer picks up connection queries before we do. The approval drawings come back clean, which saves us a fortnight on a typical frame.
Structural engineer, Consultancy, Newcastle
