Family-run contractor · Working across the UK
Pritchard Group is a family-run contractor installing, upgrading and certifying building services for schools and trusts, healthcare, public sector, commercial and infrastructure clients.
Who we are
Most of our work happens in buildings that cannot close: classrooms in term time, wards that stay open, offices with tenants inside. We plan every job around the people using the building.
Integrated project delivery
From mechanical and electrical installations to fire safety and associated building works, we coordinate specialist trades under one contract, providing a single point of responsibility for programme management, quality, safety and compliance.
Handover
We understand the importance of accurate and complete handover documentation. Our project records are prepared throughout the works, ensuring a structured and efficient handover upon completion.
Coverage
Operating across the UK, our regional teams provide local project management, consistent delivery standards and a coordinated approach to quality, safety and compliance.
