Company history
The company was founded in 2005 initially to carry out specialist suspended ceiling and minor maintenance work , which we still do today. The business operates out of Willingdon Road in Eastbourne and provides a comprehensive building and maintenance services to commercial clients including Block Management companies, letting agencies as well as residential and commercial building owners and occupiers for refurbishment, repair and maintenance works.
In 2015 the original founder sold the company to retire, the current owner and Director, Alex Nicholls, bought the business and now runs it taking it from a small specialist ceiling installer to a trusted and multi-skilled local general builder. Alex has a loyal and reliable team of qualified professional builders and a business manager, Gaye, on hand to support the office and give day to day running of the business.
