Local Government

Because it’s our community too

We have been delivering building, maintenance and refurbishment services for local authorities across Southern England for more than twenty years. Whether it’s the refurbishment of a community centre, renovation of a civic building, construction of a local school or maintenance of a social housing block -- we have the skills experience to provide a professional, reliable and value for money service.
We have experience working with County Councils, City Councils, District Councils, Borough Councils and many more. Mountjoy’s parent company, the Quarr Group, started life as part of a local authority over two decades ago and we pride ourselves on a deep understanding of the financial challenges and political pressures placed on local authorities and their staff every day. We work together with our clients to help support their wider social value initiatives and the economic aspirations for their local communities.

Maintenance and Facilities Management

With such a large number of assets, it’s important for a local government to keep up to date. Our maintenance services ensure that all of our clients’ facilities remain fully efficient for building users, and in line with all relevant legislation.

We operate on a 24/7/365 basis to ensure that we can always offer a rapid response. Our operatives’ vans are stocked with equipment suited to their trade so that in the vast majority of cases, only one visit is required.

Reactive building maintenance services to all types of civic buildings – offices, community buildings, sheltered housing and care homes, heritage and cultural attractions, sport facilities, public conveniences, youth centres, depots and works units, schools and children’s nurseries,

Construction and Refurbishment

Improving facilities for local governments goes a long way. Not only does it replenish and rejuvenate an area, it provides satisfaction to those living and working in close proximity. We have extensive experience in delivering solutions for refurbishments, extensions and new build projects for local authorities which improve local environment, attract investment and tourism and raise the quality of life in an area.
