Pressroom :: KERSHAW CONTRACTED TO MAINTAIN ITS OWN SYSTEM
M&E company contracted to maintain its own system for council
M&E maintenance company Kershaw Mechanical Services has been contracted to maintain systems it fitted into a new council building.
Last year it installed the building services into Pathfinder House, the new headquarters for Huntingdon District Council.
Now the council has contracted Kershaw Mechanical Services to maintain the systems installed under phase one of the project.
KMS will also take responsibility for managing the maintenance in phase two, which it has just completed installing.
Gary Smith, the managing director of Kershaw Mechanical Services, said: “It is always preferable to maintain your own systems because you know the work has been done to the highest possible standards.
“We’re delighted that Huntingdon District Council has decided to trust Kershaw Mechanical Services with the maintenance of their building services.”
The demolition and rebuilding of Pathfinder House was necessary after structural surveys found the walls were deteriorating.
New offices and a purpose-built customer services centre have been designed to provide better facilities for the public.
The original installation contract was worth £2 million to Kershaw Mechanical Services.
Kershaw Mechanical Services operates a 24 hour maintenance service from its base just down the road in Cambridge.
It has an additional maintenance base in Stourbridge, in the West Midlands.
KMS is the lead company of the successful Kershaw Group, which employs around 200 people.
