Lincolnshire construction firm has six appeal
A Lincolnshire construction firm is set to create jobs after committing to build a new headquarters building at Caenby Hall Business Park in the county.
Timmins Engineering & Construction has bought the 1.3 acre site in a deal brokered by Banks Long & Co. The firm says the move from Sturton-by-Stow will create six new jobs over the next six months.
Fox (Owmby) owns and occupies the majority of the business park. managing director Stephen Fox said: “We consulted West Lindsey District Council planners regarding our vision for expansion of the complex and are now looking to develop the site for complementary uses.
“The sale to Timmins marks the first stage and, obviously, having done this deal, more good news could follow.”
Timmins Engineering and Construction manufactures steel buildings, from its site on Tillbridge Lane in Sturton-by-Stow. The family business provides design and build solutions for farmers and industrial companies.
Director Edward Timmins said: “Our current premises extend to 600 square metres and we have outgrown them. We are going to put up our own 1,320 square metre building, which has already been named as Innovation Works, Caenby Hall Business Park. We will obviously have more than double our current accommodation.
“We have got the necessary planning permission from West Lindsey District Council and have started on the groundworks. We hope to be ready for a smooth transfer to
our new premises by Christmas.
“The biggest problem at the moment is fitting building our own premises around our current workload. We have customers in Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire, Cambridgeshire and Norfolk, as well as locally, and we have just recruited a new company director, David Starling to assist with taking the company forward.”
