Over 250 commercial and industrial refurbishments were completed by Inco Contracts in 2024 - the Cannock Headquartered firm’s busiest year yet.

 The company, which is fast approaching its 15th birthday, continued to win and deliver large scale logistics, distribution and manufacturing projects, whilst also adding a significant volume of Cat ‘A’ and ‘B’ office schemes to its growing portfolio of clients.

Work has been undertaken right across the UK and this has been facilitated by investment in a new office in Cardiff to cover opportunities in the South West and Wales, building on the continued expansion of existing offices in Warrington and Stevenage.

“I do feel that a lot of the pension funds have strayed true to their investment plans,” explained Tim Lewis, Associate Director for Inco Contracts.

“We've seen take-up of industrial space rise by 18 per cent compared to 2023, the retail investment market continues to enjoy elevated levels of liquidity and a decrease in available office space than the previous year. “

He continued: “This gives us a good indication that demand is increasing and, in turn, resulting in more refurbishment works for our teams across the UK.

“What we tried to do in 2024 is put in place the foundations to consolidate exponential growth in recent years, investing in eighteen new people to take our direct team to 46 and our supply chain to more than 100 trusted suppliers. 

“The decision to open a presence in Wales and the South West has also been a resounding success, with ten projects already tendered for and won.”

Inco Contracts, which won the Express & Star’s Company of the Year award, is a specialist in industrial and commercial refurbishment schemes across the UK, completing hundreds of projects every year.

These often tend to be turnkey in nature and involve the company working alongside architects, designers, and landlords to bring warehouse, educational establishments and office space back to life or to the required modern-day standards.

Services provided range from industrial roof and cladding, dilapidation schemes, external groundwork packages, building services, M&E installations, strip-outs and demolition, not to mention heritage and conservation work.

Tim continued: “There’s been some really significant projects completed this year, including works at Manchester Airport, a stunning industrial transformation in Coventry and our largest fit-out to date in St Helens and exciting new work in Plymouth.

“These contracts showcase our track record for delivering on time, to budget and to the highest possible standards. It’s an approach we are now taking into the education world, with a lot of schools and buildings set for repairs following Labour’s decision to increase the budget.

Inco Contracts is committed to the communities it operates in and recently delivered more than 1100 ‘chemo comfort bags’ and 1000 radiotherapy water bottles to Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust Charity.

It will be returning to New Cross Hospital in a few months to help with a garden makeover and has also named The Little Princess Trust as its charity of the year.

This inspiring cause provides free real-hair wigs to children and young people battling hair loss while also funding vital research into kinder childhood cancer treatments.
