The DWC GROUP, which has its Head Office in Essex, has since 2004 acquired three companies in a move to significantly expand its penetration into the specialised sector of the construction industry which concentrates on remedial damp proofing, basement waterproofing & conversions, timber treatment, flood & water leak insurance remediation service, structural reinforcing involving the installation of wall ties, lateral restraints and reinforcing anchors for ground & property stabilization schemes.
The DWC Group now consists of DWC LOGO, axis LOGO based in the North East region which has brought to the group many years of experience providing an excellent service to the structural engineering industry and Regent Homeguard LOGO - a merger of Homeguard based in Folkestone - a name synonymous with this specialised sector for over 30 years and Sussex based Regent Systems, a name well connected to the damp & structural reinforcing industry for over 20 years.
They have also announced their membership of Constuctionline LOGO, the government sponsored agency for the approval of contractors in the construction industry.
The combined experience of the Group's surveyors and technicians has provided a unique opportunity for the Group to expand its presence within the Structural Reinforcing and Flood & Water leak insurance Remediation market place. They possess the facilities of being able to provide a Certificate of Dryness in a fraction of the time most drying processes take, which of course leads to substantial savings for the insurance company and much less aggravation for the property owner to endure.
Malcolm Thornton the MD (pictured) said: "With steady growth and sensible acquisitions we can offer a comprehensive one-stop resource for home owners and businesses such as councils, housing associations, insurance companies, builders and developers."
