About from company website

JW Cannon & Co Ltd is a third-generation, family-run building company with over 70 years of history, founded by William John Cannon in 1948. Initially a master tiler and bricklayer, the company grew through quality workmanship and a strong local reputation, expanding to its current William Street, Carshalton premises in the 1950s. The company has a significant history in insurance repair work, with over 40 years of experience handling large fire, EOW, and impact claims, and is approved by most major insurance companies.

With a multi-skilled, in-house team, JW Cannon & Co Ltd offers a comprehensive range of building services. This includes complete new house construction, structural alterations, extensions, and high-quality property maintenance. They also cater to traditional construction aspects and have an on-site joinery workshop capable of producing bespoke joinery items.

The company has a strong commitment to quality, reliability, and customer care, evidenced by award-winning customer service recognition. Over the decades, JW Cannon & Co Ltd has built a diverse client base, including local authorities such as Surrey County Council, the GLC, London Boroughs of Sutton and Croydon, and Reigate and Banstead Council. They have also worked for organisations like the Co-op, Royal Marsden Hospital, The Metropolitan Police, Her Majesty's Prison Service, and various surveying and architectural practices.

The company prides itself on its family origins and the long-standing relationships it maintains with clients, many of whom have been using their services for 40 years.
