The challenge is officially over.
3 and a half days cycling 96 miles then doing the 3 peaks in 22 hrs and 41mins.

Massive thank you to Bill Tyre for driving us around safely and within the time slots we needed.

Thistle Scottish Gifts for their support too. You buy all the merchandise the lads wore on the challenge (and more) all over the country.

Brian Carson Building Contractors not only a great building company and a sponsor but also gave us some great advice on the whole challenge.

And Healing Hanns who will be helping us return to regular life after wreaking our bodies over the last week.

And lastly thank you for all the encouragement and support. We are just £50 short of £1,500 so if you haven't donated and are in a position to do so you can click the link below to donate. Every like, share and comment is greatly appreciated too.

Much love and if we ever suggest anything like this again please remind us that we have both said never again.

John and Steady 👍

🏠 Another project completed!

Here are a couple of photos of a newly constructed garage we’ve recently completed for a valued returning customer.

The new building consists of a 3-bay carport and a fully enclosed garage, complete with a Hormann remote-controlled electric garage door.

The carport also features an electric vehicle charging point, while inside we’ve created a purpose-built dog kennel with an external dog run complete with custom-built kennel panels.

Another project completed from start to finish, tailored to the customer’s requirements. 🔨🏡

A huge thank you to our returning customer for trusting us with another project — we really appreciate the continued business!

📞 If you’re considering a new garage, carport or bespoke building, get in touch to discuss your requirements.

Dumfries and Galloway! Whats Going on ?

Our very own Iain McMorran is about to take on an incredible challenge in support of mental health.
Starting this Friday, Iain will cycle the West Highland Way over three days before going straight into the National Three Peaks Challenge, aiming to complete all three mountains within 24 hours. An extraordinary test of endurance, determination, and resilience.
He's doing this to raise funds for an amazing cause that touches so many lives. Mental health affects us all in some way—whether personally, through family, friends, or colleagues. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will help make a real difference.
Please show your support by clicking the donation link and giving whatever you can. If you're unable to donate, sharing this post would mean just as much.
Good luck, Iain—we're all behind you and wish you every success. 💙🚴⛰️

Challenge Update:

71hrs to go!
Yes - we start the challenge this Friday!

First up the West Highland Way on 🚵‍♂️ then the 3 peaks ⛰️ in 24hrs!

The fundraising page will stay open and we are working on a way for people to track our progress - and potentially launch a rescue if need be 😂

We also have some big news to announce in the next hour or so!! 🙌

Keep your eyes peeled for the updates:-
