The new areas will go live on the site during September 2009 but spaces within the new areas are selling fast as publicity surrounding Sub-Sight grows.

This means that Sub-Sight now comprehensively covers twenty counties in the South-East of England and is actively working to put sub-contractors in touch with developers and principal contractors in the following areas:

Now, due to phenomenal demand, Sub-Sight has extended its scope to cover another 13 counties (see below) and, as a result, has set a target of £25m in new contracts for sub-contractors in this newly extended area.

The 4000+ current projects within this region amount to a total value of over £3.8billion so far this year, ands this does not include the work going on in preparation for the London 2012 Olympics. This means that there will be somewhere in the region of 80,000 sub-contract packages going out to tender. Our intention is to ensure that, through effective networking on their behalf, our Sub-Sight members pick up a proportion of this work.

£25million works out at less than 1% of the total works being carried out in the region. Not such an unrealistic target after all? It stands to reason, when analysing these figures, that many of the sub-contract packages on projects in this region must be going to firms from outside the geographical region. Sub-Sight aims to re-claim a portion of the revenue in the Midlands and South-East of England for local firms.

St Albans City Football club manager Steve Castle has declined to comment on his future after rumours surfaced that his contract has been terminated.

According to sources, Castle and club secretary Steve Eames have been made redundant following the collapse of Verry Construction

Saints chairman John Gibson, who was the man at the helm at Verry Construction, has been holding meetings this week in an attempt to secure the future of the football club. The club alledgedly has debts of over £500,000, but it is believed that developments relating to the club’s ownerships may be in place by the weekend.

The latest news comes after a meeting over a proposed scheme for a supporter’s trust.

Fans voted in favour of the trust and it was also strongly rumoured that the club was about to be taken over by Leadbitter Group, the Oxfordshire-based construction firm. There are strong rumours that Leadbitter have taken on John Gibson as joint-director in return for winning the Oaklands College development contract.

Prince Charles visited the site of an eco-friendly construction project this week and was left with a cut hand and a costly dry-cleaning bill after trying his hand at a bit of bricklaying.

The normally immaculately turned-out heir to the throne covered his expensive suit in cement dust and grazed his hand as he struggled to lift a clay building block at the site of the project, which is being constructed using all-natural materials.

Clay blocks, lime plaster and insulation made from wool are just some of the materials being used for the building at the Building Research Establishment’s Innovation Park in Watford, Hertfordshire.

The aim of Sub-Sight is to bridge the gap between principal contractors and sub-contractors and marry together companies which would, otherwise, never have had the opportunity to do business.

We aim to create a more structured way of introducing sub-contractors to main contractors and to offer the construction industry an alternative means of building business.
