As part of growth plans to double the Group's turnover to £2 billion, the business will expand its portfolio of planned and responsive maintenance services it delivers for local authorities and registered social landlords across Northumberland, County Durham, Tees Valley and Tyne and Wear
The company recently held the first in a series of 'Meet the Buyer' events in Stockton-On-Tees, which provided subcontractors with the chance to become one of the business' preferred suppliers for work being delivered in the region.
