A plumbing and heating company in Coventry is planning future growth after moving to new premises in the city.
Nu Age Heating & Interiors, which was established in 2019, has moved from a base in Earlsdon to a 1,041 sq ft unit at Kingswood Close Industrial Estate in Holbrooks.
The company was assisted in its move to the property, which is owned by Coventry City Council, by property specialists Holt Commercial.
The deal is part of a hat-trick of lettings at Kingswood Close which means that all ten units on the estate have now been let.
Nu Age Heating & Interiors, which is run by Daniel Hayes and Kieran Masterson and employs 13 members of staff including seven engineers and five apprentices, has invested five figures in fitting out the property to create office space and a mezzanine floor for storage.
The company offers a whole range of plumbing, refurbishments and heating services – including air conditioning – to homeowners, landlords, homebuilders, property developers and architects and has expanded into offering electrical services.
Daniel said: “We’re delighted to have made the move to Kingswood Close. We have taken enough space to be able to grow even further over the next few years and we’re really pleased with the location.
“The company was started by Kieran in 2019 and then I joined three years ago having worked in London.
“We’ve both got many years of experience in this industry and we are really keen to bring through the next generation, which is why we have five apprentices.
“I started as an apprentice myself – I’d actually applied for 500 jobs back in 2010 and couldn’t find one. The local paper ran a story on me and a one-man-band took me on. Giving me that chance back then means I can do the same for others now.”
He added: “We’re grateful for the help we had from Ed Jenkinson at Holt Commercial. He made sure he answered all of our questions promptly and was always at the end of the phone for us.”
Ed Jenkinson, associate at Holt Commercial, said: “We’re really pleased to have completed a hat-trick of deals which means Kingswood Close is now fully let.
“The units are small, industrial/warehouse properties and if you ask anyone in the industry, they are extremely popular at the moment so it’s great that we were able to bring these to market for Coventry City Council and to get them all let.
“Nu Age’s arrival is the final piece in the jigsaw and we wish the company every success with its plans for growth.”
Councillor Jim O’Boyle, Cabinet Member for Jobs, Regeneration and Climate Change, said: “It’s great that all of our units at Kingswood Close are fully let and its lovely to hear such a local success story for Daniel personally and for Nu Age Heating and Interiors.
“Units like this are in high demand and they are often used by local independent businesses who employ local people and who work in the local area so they are a real win all around.
“I wish Daniel and Kieran every success for the future.”
