22nd June - ISO9001 quality award for GWN

Following an assessment by an independent body, GWN Contracts Ltd has been awarded ISO9001 certification. This internationally recognised certification has only been achieved by about 5% of UK businesses. A delighted James Pearson said “GWN have always been proud of the service we offered our clients and the way we conduct our business. Now that we have been awarded the ISO 9001 certification, by outside experts, it further confirms that the standards and service we offer is impeccable.” Wynn Walker, who undertook the assessment for the QMS Quality Management Systems, paid particular tribute to “the investment in people and training that enables GWN Contracts Ltd to provide an efficient service to their customers.” Bardsley Construction recently said that GWN were the best plastering and dry-lining contractor they've worked with in 25 years!”.

19th April

Following a complete design overhaul, GWN launches its new website. The wait is finally over! The new site provides information on GWN's core competencies in Drywall, plastering and structural framing systems, along with other services. Managing Director, Gary Walsh, said........

"The redesign of the website was long overdue. Our old site was 5 pages in size and that simply did not reflect who we were and more importantly what we had become within the industry. The design brief was for a site that would be appealing and informative to knowledgeable main contractors and their agents. Both myself and the management team are delighted with the final outcome. It is particularly nice to see the 'work in progress' photographs and the pictures of our tradesmen featuring so prominently. The site designer, Paul Smith, has done a superb job and I look forward to the site developing over the coming months. All the work we are doing with BenchmarkQ and our ISO9001 certification will soon feature prominently. Also, two large projects are being commissioned soon and our new website will showcase them."
