About Us
Brief Profile of GK Design Contracts Ltd
Gary Wells founded the company in 1993. Since then, the company has worked on projects worldwide and gained a good reputation for design, drafting, administration and management of curtain wall, fenestration, rainscreen cladding and other glass and metal structures.
Our primary aim is to meet our clients needs by producing comprehensive, accurate, functional and presentable General Arrangement drawings for architects approval, as well as manufacturing schedules and details.
We know that good drawings are not all that is required of us. We therefore emphasize an honest approach with our clients, ensuring we are open from the start regarding our resources and ability to perform to programme. In short, this means that we would rather turn a potential client down, than let them down and we take this very seriously.
