Devastated for Shaun @SoakLifestyleTorquay but determined to help the team rebuild the business. Our tractors Billy, Hercules and Albert, were on hand to assist yesterday and we'd like to offer further help with a man and a van and storage @MasonsKings #StormBabet #JohnDeere

We've completed major works at Shiphay Lane some 4 weeks ahead of schedule! Built to last, the early finish also means no disruption locally for the start of the school term.
Great partnership working @CORMACltd and @WJ UK on behalf of @Torbay Council. #RoadworksInTheBay

Swisco has now completed vital resurfacing works on Barton Hill Rd outside the Herald Express Offices. Taking advantage of reduced traffic volume, due to the summer holidays, we turned this job around swiftly. Big thanks to @SWH Ltd for carrying out the works #RoadworksInTheBay
