M & J Ballantyne Ltd started out as general building contractors thus bringing with us a wealth of knowledge, capability, experience and understanding of both construction and the intricacies of building contracts themselves. Restoration has always been part of our business from the Company's inception in 1937, in more recent years the value of our experience has been recognised by Clients throughout the South of Scotland and we have been invited to work on some of the most highly regarded listed buildings in the area.
M & J Ballantyne Ltd started out as general building contractors in 1937 thus bringing with us a wealth of knowledge, capability, experience and understanding of both construction and the intricacies of building contracts themselves. We undertake the role of Main Contractor to manage, procure and deliver the finished product to our Clients on time and within budget. The type of work we undertake is wide and varying in both value and complexity, examples include: Primary and secondary schools, health centres, hospital extensions, dental surgeries, housing developments for housing associations, workshops, advance factory units, retail units, offices, public toilets, country house extensions, one off private residences, hotel alterations and the like.
The construction of a 488m2 traditional build new house with detached double garage and car port. This site was the furthest M. & J. Ballantyne have travelled from our home base, however, the logistics of being 255 miles from home did not deter our decision to become involved in this project. The contract involved site clearance of a largely wooded private garden, traditional concrete strip foundations and block work under building with the installation of the requisite services including pipes for an air source heating system.
