SAS Local Builder

SAS Limited was established in 1978, self-financed, principally offering roofing and cladding services to the public and the construction industry. Based in Essex, the company rapidly developed and began to branch out into different areas, striving to offer quality services at an economic price.

The management team were particularly interested in specialised areas of the industry and soon became one of the foremost contractors in Essex, providing adaptions to properties for the elderly and the disabled. Working for local authorities, housing associations and charities, the works ranged from major building adaptation to level entry shower systems, stair lifts and ramps with project values of £2,000 - £250,000.

At this time, self storage was relatively unknown in the UK, although it was a multi-million dollar industry in the US. SAS quickly recognised the advantages that self storage offered over traditional storageand was ready when the industry hit the UK.
