The name C.E.F was created one evening at home, to pay homage to my brothers. The name is formed from our three initials and from this point forward the branding stuck and C.E.F was made. Although I am the sole director and I just liked the idea of keeping it family-related and personal.

After some deliberation with my partner and lots of private job offers in early 2021, I decided to take the leap and form the company. It was an extremely nerve-racking decision and one that was very difficult, however, I knew I had the hunger and ambition to make it work.

My journey in the building trade started at age 16 when I left school and began work in the Cotswolds. Here was where I discovered my passion for being outdoors and hard physical work. I started as a laborer and pair of helping hands to a general builder. At age 18, I moved to large-scale sites with thousands of men. This took my love for building to another level. The busy atmosphere, fast pace, and sheer scale of these projects were mesmerizing. This was when I knew it was what I wanted to do.

I eventually decided to go to college and obtain my bricklaying qualification. I have spent many years working on exclusive developments, designed and finished to a high standard, which has led me to where I am today.
