Congratulations are in order for veteran wall tie and structural technician Craig. who’s just surpassed 21 years of service in Brick-Tie. He’s our expert wall tie installer!

Joining us as a trainee wall tie installer, just over 21 years ago, it seems like yesterday. As a young man he was always keen to learn and was soon identified as a rising star in the team. Our work is crucial structural repair, so the most important aspect of our work is diligence and integrity. That’s Craig in a nutshell. He always ensures that our customers get exactly what they expect; quality, efficiency, and courtesy.

What Craig doesn’t know about his job really is not worth noting, he’s got in–depth knowledge, qualifying as a wall tie installer many years ago. He’ probably forgotten how many courses he’s passed with flying colours, ensuring that the important finer details of wall tie installation, which matter a lot, are always done correctly for our customers. His skills include much more though, from structural repairs to damp-proofing, and timber treatment too, he’s qualified in all.

Most of all, he’s a great guy, supportive of his colleagues, friendly, and very funny! As one of three veteran employee owners with over 21 years service he’s at the heart of the company. The decision to transfer the business into employee ownership a couple of years ago, was influenced greatly by our founder’s wishes to reward and recognize the tireless work of Craig, and the veteran team at Brick-Tie. They own the business, and it shows, through Craig’s dedication and enthusiasm.

Craig is a super role model for those coming along in the rest of the team. We have several key staff with over ten years service, so expect more announcements soon. He shares his knowledge and skill freely, and takes pride in seeing others success too. He’s also very a busy chap at home, a family man and very proud of it. A Leeds united and Leeds Rhinos nut too – but don’t hold that against him. Happy days for Craig are fishing with his young son, Zack, who happens to love seafood above all else.

Thank you Craig, for your support, hard work, and your great example to others.
