Fermoy

April 2025

Our team delivered a diverse construction project in Southern Ireland over three years.

This involved the build of a new three-storey office block for Glennon Brothers Fermoy operations. Fire protection upgrades to an existing sawmill, new sawmill upgrades, a new dropsorter building, extensive yard works including surface water drainage, SUDS ponds, petrol oil Interceptors, timber infeeds and hardstandings.

We successfully managed several distinct projects separately for the same client, ensuring high standards of quality, safety, and timely delivery. This project showcases our expertise in coordinating multiple works across different sectors, providing long-term value and enhanced facilities.


Pedestrian Tunnel Project

March 2025

3b Teams have been busy building a pedestrian tunnel under the NC500.

This modular solution in precast concrete, pre-clad, in natural stone was installed without disruption to the very busy NC500 route. The structure was backfilled and the road relayed on top whilst works continue internally to hang a steel walkway for guests to move between buildings on either side of the main carriageway safely. Adding to the complications was the water course that now passes through the tunnel below the walkway gantry. More images to follow.

Crane Hire Celebrating 10 Years

March 2025

2024 marked the 10-year celebration of the Crane Hire Division in operation!

A memorable and fast paced year for the team, to celebrate this tremendous milestone, we welcomed a brand-new crane, the very first of its kind into Scotland!

The LTM 110-5.2 joined our growing fleet, the technology outstanding on this 110-tonne model. A few short weeks later we continued the celebrations with the arrival of another new addition – the LTM 1060-3.1 – a stunning 60 tonne model.

In the summer Crane Hire Clients enjoyed a spectacular day of Hospitality at Ayr Summer Race Day to help us celebrate the achievement of 10 years in operation.

We operate a busy fleet of cranes ranging from 40 – 230 tonnes. These cranes are in high demand all over Scotland and England and have worked on some breathtaking sites in various different locations such as Tongue, Oban and Skye.
