Derwood Developments Announces Expansion To Its Workforce During Recession

July 22, 2009 - PRLog -- Bridgend, Mid Glamorgan

Derwood Developments recently announced the expansion of its workforce in the Small Works Division due to an increase in demand for works such as loft conversions.

Prior to the recession the company had mainly focused on developing and selling land and building new houses. However as the housing market declined the company took the decision to diversify to meet the ever changing market demands. The Company’s Director Roy Derrick stated that:

“In order to continue trading and remain strong in the current climate we decided to focus more on our Small Works Division. During the current recession it was becoming evident that people were choosing to improve and enhance their existing properties rather than to move. I quickly realised that the vast experience that we have as a company could easily be adapted to meet the current demands.”
 
Since changing its business strategy the company has seen a huge increase in requests for loft conversions and has therefore taken on additional skilled tradesmen to cope with the demand.

Derwood Developments in a well established company that prides itself on having a highly skilled workforce which strives to carry out work to the highest specification along with giving the best customer service possible. The company is also a member of the Master Federation of Builders and Construction Line and is also registered to the NHBC.
