About from company website
Established in 1973, Brandwells Construction Co. Ltd has grown from a small Bristol-based firm into a leading groundworks and civil engineering contractor in the South West. The company was founded by Andy Dowden and Joe Whitter, building on their previous experience in the industry.
Despite early challenges, including the passing of Joe Whitter, the business persevered and expanded. Over the decades, Brandwells Construction has evolved, shifting its focus towards groundwork elements and developing strong relationships with major housing developers. Landmark projects include the South Liberty Trading Estate and the Lovell Urban Renewals redevelopment at Baltic Wharf.
The company has also undertaken significant reinforced concrete frame projects. Today, Brandwells Construction is a robust entity with a turnover exceeding £62 million and a team of over 300 operatives. They have established preferred contractor status with many clients and opened a regional office in Exeter in 2022 to manage increasing workload.
The company has successfully navigated economic downturns and crises, demonstrating resilience and a commitment to its workforce and clients.
