We’ve come a long way since our formation in 1972. Initially created to construct farm buildings, our family firm has continually evolved and expanded over the past 50 years, adding a variety of specialised services to the company portfolio.

Still market leaders in the construction of steel frame buildings, our civil engineering, haulage and support service experience is increasingly in demand. Our crane hire operation is perhaps the most visible element of the business, with our distinctive blue fleet of Liebherr machines continually engaged on projects throughout Orkney. We’ve also firmly established ourselves as experts in the renewable energy field, offering a range of vital services to the wind and marine power sectors.

Founded by Ian Heddle and now led by his son Derek, we employ over 20 staff at our Kirkwall base, all of them fully trained, dedicated and highly experienced.

We might have grown a bit since those early days, but our core values of customer service, professionalism and commitment never change. Reputation is everything in Orkney and we strive to protect and enhance ours by always delivering the very best service to our customers.

Always delighted to discuss any aspect of our services with clients, old and new, we look forward to helping make your project a success.
