Golden Valley Construction Ltd

Company owner and director Chris Hales established Golden Valley Construction in 1977. He began work in construction and civil engineering straight out of high school when he started working full time for his father's company GI Hales & Sons in Hereford. Chris worked for GI Hales & Sons on major projects across Herefordshire notably the inner relief road and Grey Friars bridge in the City. He founded his own independent company in the late 70's starting out with just a Land Rover and a JCB Through the 80's Chris expanded the business building a reputation as a competent operative, with the skills to produce high quality workmanship. Plant and assets including the company business premises were added during this period. Chris also qualified as a Street works Supervisor enabling him to carry out work on the highway. In the 90's his Son's began working for the firm. The company has continued to expand and added assets that enable them to operate in the modern day construction industry. During this period GVC undertook work for local authorities, commercial schemes for developers, agricultural sector projects and domestic work. We have strived to ensure staff gain high standards as operatives and have achieved MPQC - CPCS certification in all necessary plant categories as a practical qualification. All staff also hold CSCS site skills health and safety theory as a minimum. GVC gained approved sub contractor status for Amey, now (Balfour Beatty)working within Herefordshire on numerous Highway and local authority assets, including car parks, schools and roads. We also worked in the rail sector with Amey and held Link-up approval for operated plant.
