We are delighted to announce, as part of our planned expansion, a £1 million investment was made earlier this year to set up a new scaffolding division of the business.
The main objective being, to improve the service and support to our own brickwork contracts. Through our new scaffold division ‘AGL’, we can service all our own scaffolding requirements to ensure a smooth transition and uninterrupted flow of work, as each building stage progresses. We now provide an end-to-end site service that allows peace of mind from set up timescale, erection of scaffolding, through to removal at thend of the build, once other trades have finished.
The purchase of plant, transport and equipment together with the acquisition of yard premises in West Sussex were made, as ‘AGL Scaffold Ltd’ was formed. Since initial operations began, an additional 40 personnel have been taken on and the scaffolding business has already proved to be very effective, with service, cost and operational benefits apparent.
We now proudly employ over 500 dedicated tradesmen and supporting staff and are currently working on an impressive 34 sites across the South of England, for prestigious house builders such as Barratt Developments plc, Linden Homes, Bovis Homes, Redrow, Bellway Homes, Persimmon Homes, Bloor Homes, Countryside, Taylor Wimpey plc, Antler Homes Plc, Dandara, and Cala Homes.
Grant Rickson, Director, comments … “ We are passionate about delivering a professional and reliable service for our customers and are delighted with the potential the new scaffolding division is creating. With a strategy of continuous development, our key focus has been on infrastructure, managing operations, administration and logistics. We have a strong network of site managers, site surveyors and customer care teams across the South to ensure the highest levels of quality and service, and the strictest compliance with health and safety procedures are met.
Considerable investment has also been made as the business has steadily grown over the last 12 years including maintaining a growing fleet of over 60 vehicles to service our customer requirements. We have gone from strength to strength, and have built strong foundations, to produce the best results throughout the construction process”.
