North East Contracts was founded on the 5th August 2002 by its current Managing Director John Alexander Lyons. John has been working in the roofing industry for over 35 years and previously as a site coordinator for Gilcomston Construction before it ceased trading. With John's previous experience, reputation and the help of his eldest son Iain the company grew rapidly and on the 31st March 2003 became a Limited company.
In April 2003 his son Christopher joined the company and soon after John's wife Sheila as the company began to grow. Although his daughter Jacqueline had been assisting him ocassionally with administration and advertising it was not until July 2004 that she became a FT employee. This was the remaining link in having John's entire family working with him as part of North East Contracts Limited.
