The family owned business of John Youngs was founded in 1851 and is the oldest of the R G Carter group. It is a full service construction company based in Norwich and handles major projects as well as small works for all client sectors.
Specialising in refurbishment, they are recognised for their tradition skills and craftsmanship, as well as the ability to work at historic and sensitive sites.
They are enormously proud of their pedigree, as it now allows them to restore historic buildings they completed over 150 years ago.
With projects ranging from church re-roofing, to environmentally friendly village halls, to rowing club boat houses, to art college restorations, it is the variety of work that keeps the team on their toes.
