We are a one stop shop who take the stress out of construction projects for our customers” Liam explains.

“While the recession was tough on all industry sectors it was especially tough on the construction sector. K&D used the opportunity to stand back and re-assess our business model, up-skilling where necessary, working smarter and adapting to the changing market needs, essentially it was as a great learning curve and it has enabled us to re-position K&D for the up-turn, when it arrives. While we took the opportunity to adapt our business model and upskill, it has to be said that K&D would not have survived in its current format without the continued support of our excellent loyal customer-base, many who have been with us for the last 22 years”
