About Carey Group
Our story starts in **** with three brothers and a van.
John, Tom and Pat Carey moved to London from Ireland and started a groundworks contracting company in London called PJ Carey Plant Hire (Oval) Ltd.
Their aspirations at the time were reflective of the values of the Carey Group today – to care about everything they did, to act with humility in all interactions, to be passionate about their work and be authentic at all times.
The Carey Group remains a family-owned construction business, operating across the UK and Ireland.
Their goal at the time was to grow to around 50 operatives and provide quality, safe work so that they and their employees could provide for their families and get safe home every day.
Through hard work and sticking to their values and their word, this was certainly achieved...and some.
Throughout the years, we have remained committed to delivering on our promises, respecting our clients, offering cutting-edge solutions and producing the highest-quality work in safe environments.
These are the core principles set by our Founders, the ones we have never wavered from and they help us to fulfil our ultimate vision to be the most trusted and socially responsible construction company, that people are proud to work with.
Our strong approach is underpinned by robust financial management, continuous investment in our people, specialist equipment and strategic assets and our long-standing culture of teamwork – we want to create the very best environments for our people.
We care about our people and our partners and how we work with them, ensuring we do our best by them.
Ultimately, we care about our impact on the world around us and the communities that we proudly help to shape.
