History
Our History
The company was founded by father and son, Vince and John Kelly in the front room of the family home in 1995.
Their ethos, "employ only the very best staff and groundworkers, use only the best kit" is still very much the business mantra to this day.
As the company expanded, Vince and John nurtured in-house talent, and planned for the long-term future by focussing on training and developing young professionals.
Over time, the Board of Directors has expanded and includes a host of outstanding individuals who have worked their way through the business underlining the business ethos of rewarding talent and hard work.
We remain a privately owned family company enabling us to focus on being a safe and high quality groundworker.
Our growth is organic and funded through our own debt free investment.
One of the biggest factors in our success is combining the personal approach of a family business whilst being able to ensure we can undertake the largest and most complex of projects and thus meet the expectations of our client base.
Excellence in safety, standards and service are at the heart of everything we do as is a commitment to be as environmentally green as possible alongside investing in our best commodity, our people.
