Why A&B

WHY A&B

Our Story

A&B Engineering is a privately owned company based in Liverpool and provides design and installation of mechanical, electrical and plumbing services throughout the northwest. The company started life back in the 1950’s and has developed over recent years to be one of the largest in its sector and this year the turnover is circa £ 50 Million. We are based in the premises that we own in Derby Lane, Old Swan, Liverpool and we have been here for nearly 50 Years, buying up adjacent property as the business grew from strength to strength.

It is owned by the shareholders who are hands on within and who have been long standing employee’s for many years and fortunate for the succession of the company as Directors retire and new blood is introduced. There are currently 200 people within the business, all full time and all Plumbers, Fitters and Electricians are directly employed, many of whom have been with the company for many many years. The company has, and continues to recruit and train a high number of Apprentices in all disciplines both at craft and technical levels. Many of the current Directors and senior management both site and office based started their working life as A&B Apprentices and the company is extremely proud of its ethos in this respect. It has taken many years, considerable investment and considerable hard work from lots of people, past and present, to bring the company to where it is now in terms of its client portfolio, quality reputation, health and safety, expertise and respect it has throughout our industry, for what it strives for and what is has achieved to date.

You can see from this new website some of the most amazing and iconic projects it has been involved with and the standings of the companies for which it works for throughout the northwest on a daily basis.

We are proud of our achievements and awards over recent years. We have been BAM Construction Best Sub Contract award winner. We have been awarded Willmott Dixons Northern Supply Chain Winner on two occasions and have won various awards with most of our customers for innovation and dedication. More recently we were delighted to win Morgan Sindall Best Supply Chain Partner 2019. Together with the equally celebrated Social Value Award which we believe reflects our dedication to recruitment, training, mentoring and trying to help lots of people, across all our communities, and we are all very proud of this acknowledgement.

Our Vision

The success of the business if it could be described in one word is ” people “. Since its formation a long time ago the company’s vision was to invest in the people within it. To recruit, train, develop, mentor and bring out the best in every individual and grow them together alongside the growth of the business. Our vision is to continue on the same path and there is an abundance of talent, of all ages, in all disciplines throughout the company. The skills that are possessed through intensive training and years of development cannot be bought. It is a lifetimes work by so many to build that wealth of knowledge, skill, expertise, experience and know how that is priceless.

Our vision is a highly skilled, user friendly and non-contractural approach with all our clients. We strive to be the very best at what we do. We believe we have the best people all working together and we want to ensure we provide a very safe environment for all and we have invested heavily in recruitment and continued training in Health and Safety to ensure this and we are justifiably proud of our record in this respect.

Our vision is to embrace challenges and changes in our industry and to master and implement the requirements whatever that maybe. We have an expertise in the requirements of BREEAM accreditation and we have delivered many projects achieving the required credits. We have expertise in renewables and we have designed and installed numerous schemes utilising Bio-mas Boilers, Photovoltaic, Combined Heat and Power (CHP), Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP), LED Lighting and we are a registered Low Carbon Consultant. We have embraced and welcomed changes to Health and Safety and we have considerable experience in 3D Modelling and BIM with all Engineers using Autodesk Revit Platform on the majority of projects.
