| Simpson’s was established in 1945, originally
carrying out building contracts for domestic and agricultural
clients, adding civil engineering works to our business in 1976.
In 1994, Nick Simpson (son of the founder) became Managing Director,
having already worked in the company for 20 years, and re-formed
the company into Simpson Civil Engineering Ltd and Simpson Plant
Hire Ltd, reinforcing the companies positions as specialists
in their fields.
For many years now, Simpson’s has continuously reinvested
in new innovations and technology, gained recognition through
providing effective specialised civil engineering solutions
for all our clients and has achieved sound growth as a result.
Our annual turnover has increased from 0.5 million in 1994
to 3 million in 2002.
From 5 employees in 1945 we now have 50 employees in Simpson
Civil Engineering and 12 in Simpson Plant Hire. Our investment
in innovation and technology also extends to our employees
and we are proud to have achieved recognition as an Investor
in People. Recognising that each of our employees is a key
factor in our success we have a continuous training programme
which is an integral and essential part of Simpson’s.
Committed as we are to skills training and quality control,
we do not employ casual workers or sub-contractors other than
to meet specialist needs which we may have from time to time.
Our clients range from local individual residential and business
requirements through to national homes developers, from local
to national construction companies, from Water companies,
Environmental companies, Local Authorities, through to Gas
providers. Simpson’s, which years ago only dealt with
local work, has gained national recognition with blue chip
companies from Aberdeen to Dover and many places in between.
Our prompt response time to enquiries and the swift transfer
of information and plans is ensured by email in addition to
phone and fax communications.
Our company is very aware of the effects our operations may
have on the environment and because of this we have a stringent
environmental policy in place to minimise wherever practicable
their effect on the environment and have adopted the principle
of BATNEEC.
