Who are we?

Specialist Surfacing continues to encompass the same sense of family principles as it did when founded in 1982 by Derrick Hunt. This ethos and commitment to deliver a quality service was instilled in our Managing Director Scott Morse from the beginning of his journey with Specialist Surfacing in the 1990s. His role as MD commenced in 2010 and incorporates all aspects of the business but with particular emphasis on the Contracting Department, including product and process development ensuring continual improvement in line with latest technologies, machinery and materials.

Colleagues Jason Horton and Craig Tate became Directors shortly after Scott took the helm. Jason, as Contracts Director oversees and supports the contracting team,  contract programmes, finance and budgets.  Craig, as Commercial Director works in close conjunction with clients providing the estimating function and also supports the contracting team,  formulating work schedules and resources. Together, they continue as a team to successfully run the business with quality, safety and value as Specialist Surfacing’s key priorities.

You're in safe hands

“Specialist Surfacing look to continually improve and work to the highest standards in our quality, safety and environmental commitments, through this we have achieved Carbon Neutral Status to ensure we are an industry leader in a sustainable future for construction.“
