1. AN INTRODUCTION

2. SBS - Stainless Balustrade Solutions
 SBS was established in 2014 to service the specific requirements of
architectural steel fitting for retail clients, both directly and as a sub-
contractor to companies such as McCue. We employ a dedicated
team of 14 men headed by Director, Steve Holmes and Managing
Director, Bernard Gallagher.
 SBS was launched in preparation for McCue's withdrawal from the
Stainless Balustrade sector, which enabled SBS to directly capitalise from
McCue’s existing client base. Many of our teams had already delivered
projects for these clients but on a subcontractor basis previously. On a
typical week, we deliver projects across 20+ UK locations. The
ProntoWelding and SBS teams have acted as main sub-contractors to
McCue for several years and have built a reputation for consistently
delivering high quality work in short timeframes. We are extremely proud
of the reputation and trusted relationship that we have built, both with
our direct clients and their end clients.
