New investment in Wales to underpin demand

Pave Aways is opening a second office in Wales to support the growth of our work in Mid Wales.

We are adding a new base in Newtown to our Welsh headquarters in Wrexham to underpin our increasing presence in the region.

The office at Ladywell House, which will open when the country’s latest lockdown ends, will be led by construction director Jamie Evans and used by our Mid Wales based team. We completed the £2.1m conversion of the former office building into a hub for small business for the Heart of Wales Property Service last year.

Pave Aways is currently working on contracts valued at more than £26m with a third of that, including new homes for Powys County Council in Newtown and Sarn, taking place in Wales.

We recently handed over the council’s first Passivhaus school in Welshpool in 2020 and have also been appointed to the Welsh Procurement Alliance’s Dynamic Purchasing System for Housing Construction.

Managing Director Steven Owen said: “We already have a strong presence in Mid Wales and have worked on some key schemes in the region but this will allow us to provide a specific focus for our clients in the county.

“We believe in having a positive impact on the area where we work and the addition of our new office will have a beneficial effect on the local economy. It will enable us to enhance the community support and education and training opportunities we can offer.”

He added: “It’s a very exciting development for us and a great way to start 2021, especially after such a challenging year generally for construction. This is a positive step forward and signals our commitment to our clients in Mid Wales.”
