With its component companies having received a number of accolades including Constructing Excellence North East’s SME of the Year in 2021 for Applebridge Construction, the group continues to go from strength to strength, building key relationships with Taylor Wimpey, Bellway, Keepmoat, McLaren Construction and GRAHAM Group.
Driven by a skilled workforce, Applebridge has invested heavily in training and development, with the £120,000 creation of a dedicated training facility in Middlesbrough in July 2021.

The company remains at the forefront of technological advancements and construction methodologies, consistently seeking new ways to improve efficiency, sustainability, and project outcomes.
