Группа Cardo приобрела подрядчика CCS, расширив сеть социального жилья на юге Англии

Cardo Group has acquired Andover-based compliance and energy contractor Correct Contract Services (CCS), adding more than 280 staff to its social housing operation. The value of the deal was not disclosed. CCS held contracts with a combined annual value of more than £40m, according to information released alongside the acquisition. The contractor provided electrical, heating, mechanical and retrofit services across more than 50,000 properties for local authorities and social housing landlords. Its services also included low-carbon heating and PAS 2035 compliance work. Former gas engineers Danny Gladwyn and Trevor Dempsey founded CCS in 2007. Dempsey died earlier this month. The business initially provided boiler installation and servicing before expanding into electrical maintenance and whole-house retrofit programmes. Correct Contract Services managing director Danny Gladwyn said joining Cardo would provide additional investment and expertise while allowing CCS to retain its existing workforce and service model. Cardo Group chief executive Liam Bevan said the acquisition would expand the group’s operations across southern England. Cardo operates across the UK and Ireland and employs more than 1,900 people. The group said the CCS deal was its 16th acquisition and forecast revenue of about £400m in its 2026/27 financial year. Its services include responsive repairs, planned maintenance, compliance work, retrofit, mechanical and electrical services, roofing and fire-safety work for social housing and public-sector clients.
