The company has held a presence in Sheffield for over 80 years and has developer long-lasting relationships with a range of clients as well as working on major projects such as Vulcan House, the headquarters of the UK Border Agency, the city's Building Schools for the Future programme which consisted of over 14 schools and the £56 million Great Yorkshire Way road link.
