Joinery Subcontractors Glasgow

Scotland’s leading commercial joinery firm, providing subcontracting services to principal contractors, Ash Contracts, was appointed by HB Projects to refurbish and upgrade various staff and back-office facilities at Woodhead Abattoir in Turriff, Aberdeenshire.

The team undertook a refurbishment programme to include upgrading and improving the existing changing rooms, the staff canteen, shower rooms, toilet cubicles and office areas.

John Calder, of Ash Contracts, commented:

“The abattoir remained fully functional during the day, so we undertook this project out of hours, in sometimes challenging Scottish winter conditions. We reconfigured several existing buildings, by installing fire partitions, new ceilings, 1500m2 of hygienic wall cladding and door refurbishment and replacement.”

HB Contracts sub-contracted this programme of work to Ash Contracts on behalf of their client, Wm Morrison Supermarkets PLC.  Woodheads is one of the best-known names in the British meat industry, with a history stretching back over 100 years. Today Woodheads is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wm Morrison Supermarkets PLC, having become one of their first vertically integrated suppliers in 1991.
