About from company website

K W Bell Group's origins trace back to 1968 when Keith Bell, a bricklayer, founded the company. His ambition led to the creation of Bell Contracting in 1993, focusing on civil engineering and groundworks. Now led by his son Peter Bell, the group has grown significantly, employing over 600 people.

The company emphasizes its family values, community commitment, and craftsmanship, principles that continue to guide its operations. Beyond its core construction activities, K W Bell Group has diversified into other ventures, including Bell Homes, which builds family homes, and Bell Plant, providing plant hire services across several counties. The group also supports education through AccXel Construction School, a co-funded industry-led facility.

The legacy of Keith Bell is honored through these ventures and the enduring values of the business. The group's vision is to lead with integrity, delivering exceptional quality and fostering a safe environment. They are committed to driving meaningful impact and ensuring the business thrives for future generations, reflecting a long-term perspective on their operations and community engagement.
