COVID-19 has unfortunately played its part on the construction industry, despite it being amongst the first to return to working post-lockdown. Due to the virus and its various effects, Garda Construction was subject to some material delays during 2020, which it was able to forewarn its clients of and thereby mitigate any impactful delays in terms of projects. Also, the impact of social distancing has been felt by both Garda Construction and its clients. Due to social distancing, the firm was able to undertake projects that involved no direct client contact by putting suitable measures in place in a timely manner. COVID-19 has also meant that more people are spending time at home, and therefore more willing to spend money on improving their homes, increasing the size of their existing property, or simply look at buying a brand new one. As a family-run business, Garda Construction understands the importance of having a home space that does not feel like a prison during lockdown. With its ethos of high customer service from beginning to end, the firm has well and truly established itself as an outstanding construction and building business. Ultimately, Garda Construction is a benchmark of excellence in an industry that is subject to criticism too often. This business understands the value of a home, and works tirelessly to make sure that clients have their perfect space.
