Yorkshire acquisition for sealant and repairs specialist

Sealant and cosmetics repairs company SD Sealants is putting down roots in Yorkshire with the acquisition of a Leeds-based business.

It has bought H2O Sealants. Originally based in Crossgates, Leeds, the existing workforce at H2O Sealants will be coming under the SD banner this year.

Over the coming months, SD Sealants plans to expand its offering in the North of England and its latest acquisition is set to be the first of many developments in the area.

Commenting on acquiring his company’s first business in the North, SD Sealants managing director Nick Jones said: “We’re thrilled to be growing our team here in Yorkshire.

“After setting up our first SD offices in Leeds two years ago, the demand for work has increased exponentially and we’ve loved being involved in so many historic and new builds in the region.

“There is a great deal of skill and expertise to be found in the workforce up North and we’re looking forward to having some new faces on our team. We pride ourselves on having the best crew in the business and with the addition of the talented H2O team we’re excited to see this continue.”

The SD sealants and cosmetic repairs team has this year been involved in a number of significant construction projects in the north of England, including Liverpool FC’s training ground,and the Dewsbury and District Hospital.

Jones added: “SD has just celebrated a record sales quarter from July to September this year, and on top of that we’re looking forward to marking an amazing third consecutive year of growth for the business with a new foothold in the north.

“We’ve had the opportunity to work on some fantastic projects in Yorkshire and beyond recently, and we look forward to welcoming some new members to the SD team who can help us to continue our hard work here.”

Launched in 1973, SD Sealants and Cosmetic Repairs originated as a family run business in Somerset that specialised in the supply and application of sealant. Today, the business has eight offices across England, Scotland and Wales.
