A Warrenpoint based building services company has been acquired by UK group Cardo as part of an expansion strategy that will see enhanced maintenance and improvement services delivered across the region while maintaining local expertise and community connections.
CTS NI, which has built a strong reputation over decades as a trusted partner for public sector clients, has joined the Cardo Group in a move that promises to bring additional investment and resources to the Northern Ireland market. The company provides full-service maintenance contracts to thousands of properties across the region, offering services that include planned and reactive maintenance, mechanical and electrical works, compliance testing, and specialist improvement projects.
Connaire McGreevy, Founder of CTS Projects, emphasised that the company's local focus would remain unchanged. "We're proud of the strong local relationships we've built here in Northern Ireland, and our team remains firmly rooted in the communities we serve. Joining Cardo is an exciting step for us. It means we can keep doing what we do best - delivering excellent service for our clients, while benefiting from the expertise, investment, and innovation of a larger organisation that shares our values."
McGreevy assured existing clients and partners that the transition would be seamless. "For our clients and supply chain partners, it's business as usual with the same experienced people and commitment to quality. But now, we'll also have the resources to invest more in our people, grow opportunities for local suppliers, and take on projects at a larger scale."
The acquisition forms part of Cardo's broader growth strategy to expand its national footprint while ensuring services continue to be delivered by local teams who understand their communities. For CTS, the partnership offers access to greater resources and expertise whilst maintaining its established local relationships and commitment to the Northern Ireland market.
Liam Bevan, CEO of Cardo, highlighted why CTS was an attractive acquisition target. "CTS is an established and respected local business with a strong track record in the region. They share our focus on quality, reliability, and community, which makes this a natural fit. This acquisition is a key part of our growth strategy - expanding our presence into Northern Ireland while ensuring services are still delivered by local teams who know and serve their communities best."
Bevan outlined the benefits of the partnership for the broader market. "By combining our expertise, we can deliver high-quality services at scale, support local jobs and suppliers, and strengthen our position as a provider of choice across the UK."
The acquisition represents a significant development in Northern Ireland's building services sector, with CTS's senior leadership team guiding the integration process to ensure uninterrupted service delivery. The move promises to strengthen the region's capacity for large-scale building maintenance and improvement projects whilst preserving the local expertise and community relationships that have made CTS a trusted name in the industry.
