Marlow started with a single access road outside Leeds and a depot we rented by the month. The first site plans were drawn on a tailgate.
1 contract
2 machines, both hired
No yard
The ground nobody wanted
A former works site with sixty years of fill in it. It taught us how to work with ground that has its own opinion, and it is still the job we measure the others against.
60 years of fill
9 months on site
Still our reference
Our own plant yard
We stopped waiting six weeks for hired machines and bought the fleet. Since then every job starts on our own timetable instead of somebody else's.
6 weeks saved
11 machines
One timetable
Forty people, one yard
We turned down a second depot twice. Everything still runs from one yard, which is the only reason a plan can be questioned on the same day it is made.
