Company Profile

R Clouston Ltd is a building contractors specialising in carpentry and joinery.  The company was established in 1989 by local joiner Robert (Bob) Clouston.  After firmly establishing himself locally as a high quality joiner the demand for work grew.  Steadily increasing the workforce over the years the company now employs a staff of 56. 

We pride ourselves on the high standard of workmanship on all jobs, from manufacturing display units to undertaking large scale commercial projects.  Custom built premises at Hatston Industrial Estate allow the company to work on and build everything from the smallest domestic item to timber kit houses. 

We recognise that our people are our best asset.  To that end we ensure that our staff  are educated to the highest standard.  Every year we implement a formal training plan to ensure all staff receive adequate training to perform their jobs to the best of their ability.  Having started work in the construction industry with a formal apprenticeship himself, Bob realises the importance of taking on apprentices and training employees.
