JDL's expanding

It’s been another exciting year here at JDL between celebrating our 12th birthday, moving offices and expanding the company both in terms of staff and new business.

Lots of new people have joined the team this year. We’ve welcomed a new accounts assistant, Jordan Ward, a mechanical contracts manager, Tom Lee, and two new gas engineers, Connor Warren and Steve Cowan.

We’re also thrilled to welcome five new apprentices. Well done to Josh Towse, Guy Briggs Bateman, Adam Jackson, Joseph Day and Nathan Latimer who all successfully graduated from JDL’s very first apprentice day which tested their ability to perform practical and written tasks in a controlled environment.

You're hired! welcome to our successful apprentices.

Another big change for us was our move from Elvington Industrial Estate earlier in the year to Lindum Business Park just down the road. This has allowed us to grow the team and given us the chance to partner with Lindum Group on some of their upcoming large projects.

Our projects team has also been extremely busy over the last few months, completing work on 82 bungalows in Hull and the premier lounge at York Racecourse. They’re now about to start work on another large project to refurbish the Genesis 3 building at the University of York.

Meanwhile our minor works department is busier than ever since taking over from the Colin Bell business almost two years ago. Taking on two new gas engineers has enabled JDL to meet the increased demand and provide the best customer service possible – that’s paramount to us and something we all pride ourselves on.

Our projects team has also been extremely busy over the last few months, completing work on 82 bungalows in Hull, the premier lounge at York Racecourse and we are very close to completing works at the York Community Stadium in Huntington. The new stadium, once complete, has a capacity of 8,000 and will be the home to York City F.C and York City Knights R.L.F.C. Along with the new stadium there will be a new cinema, a gym, swimming pools, sports hall, retail park and more! To see how we’re getting on at the stadium visit our JDL Facebook page to watch the video in full.

Our latest project - York Community Stadium in Huntington.

We are also very excited to start work on another large project which will see a full mechanical and electrical refurbishment of the Genesis 3 building at the University of York. Keep an eye out on JDL’s Facebook page for further updates.
