Watch out – Jack (of all trades) is about!

There’s a well-known saying about people being a Jack of all trades but master of none.

What does that mean for the successful delivery of your construction project?

When you’re under pressure from the client to deliver their project on time and within budget, why risk your success by putting unproven workers on your site?

Yet for many contractors, that’s exactly what happens if your site labour supply is trusted to an agency that offers 58 or more different trades

Keeping on top of training, legislation, compliance, and best practices – that’s a lot of work. That’s why Skilled Labour Services is dedicated to providing only the very best civil engineering and groundwork skilled operatives available.

We call it the SLS Way.

What is the SLS Way?

With a proven contracting pedigree and a long history of serving just one area of the construction industry, we are deadly serious when we say that we have the best flexible workforce in the region.

What’s more, they’re regularly supervised by our contract managers and you always know who to contact should you need to.

As a business, we keep our operations lean, making us resilient in tough times, focusing our resources on the areas that matter most: looking after our people and our clients. 

But other agencies supply ALL the trades

Of course, you could work with an agency that supplies 58 or more different trades.

But take a moment to consider: if they are a Jack of all trades, might they really be a master of none?

Without wishing to sound arrogant, we don’t honestly think there’s much we haven’t seen before, worked through and come out wiser and more resilient as a business. 

Our management team boast an enviable industry pedigree and you’ll often see them out on site, checking work quality and ensuring your site manager is happy with our work.
