Background

'The Connection Issue'

"My knowledge of the building industry spans four decades, from labouring on site to managing multi-million pound construction projects in recent years. I have learned from centuries of experience by listening and working closely with trades people, company directors, professionals, academics and customers alike".

"I am conscious of the difficulties faced by people trying to connect with competent local builders. To date, any industry wide solution has failed to emerge. My hope is that Builders In Your Community, with its local commitment and focus, will successfully address this 'connection issue'".

Builders In Your Community Managing Director and founder - Joe Teakle.
