I have been using GR Carr for all my welding and fabrication needs on a large contract through Engie. They are a very reliable outfit who execute a very high standard of work. the relationship they build with the client is superb and is noticed onsite too. All works are carried out with minimal fuss and great detail. They are a great asset to myself and Engie and we will continue to use GR Carr for the foreseeable future.
