Why they made the list

  • Rare manufacturer-plus-contractor model: CA Building Products manufactures the systems (including the flagship Twin-Therm built-up roof and wall system) while CA Roofing Services, CA Specialist Cladding Solutions and CA Refurbishment Projects deliver them, removing supply-chain risk on large schemes.
  • Roughly 230 staff and employee-owned since 2006, with 9% turnover growth and a 62% jump in pre-tax profit to £11m in the most recent ranking, a financially stable counterparty for major projects.

Why they made the list

  • Pure-play focus on cladding and roof envelopes, they don't do anything else, which means deep technical capability on complex industrial packages.
  • In-house fabrication and just-in-time delivery from their own factory removes the third-party manufacturer lead-time risk that catches out other contractors on large industrial schemes.
  • £70m forward order book reported in the last published accounts and a long-running place in the Roofing Today Top 5, they would have topped the Top 40 in 2023 had Avonside Group not exited the market.
  • Major industrial credentials including 760,000+ sq ft delivered for Firethorn Trust at Link Logistics Park, Ellesmere Port, alongside Winvic, plus Planet Mark emissions reporting and electric fleet investment for ESG-scored tenders.

Specialism

Why they made the list

  • 9–11 strategically located branches with full surveying, estimating, contract management and CAD capability in each branch, a decentralised structure that drives strong regional response on industrial estates.
  • Specialist Aperture division targets weathering penetrations, gutter joints and problematic detailing on metal roofs, exactly the niche industrial work that goes wrong on warehouses.
  • Project list reads like a tour of UK landmark infrastructure: Battersea Power Station (45,000m² waterproofing, 2023 NFRC Mastic Asphalt category winner), Aberdeen Airport's £20m Phase 1 redevelopment for Balfour Beatty, King's Cross station platform refurbishment and Rothesay Pavilion.
  • Briggs Amasco Maintenance specifically targets multi-site reactive and planned maintenance for industrial portfolio owners, and they were the first UK roofing contractor accredited as a Carbon Literate Organisation.

mjconstructiongroup.co.uk

The standout performer on margin discipline, 4th in the Roofing Today Top 40.

Why they made the list

  • Nearly 20% pre-tax margin against a sector average of 5.25%, telling you they're disciplined on project selection and pricing, and unlikely to hit the cashflow trouble that has taken out other contractors.
  • Acts as Principal Contractor on around 95% of projects, self-managing M&E, drainage and associated trades, ideal for industrial clients refurbishing live operational sites where one accountable contractor matters.
  • Building envelope and decarbonisation retrofit propositions sit exactly where industrial buyers are spending, RAAC remediation, fabric upgrades and net-zero envelope work.
  • Approved Training Organisation status, plus regular NFRC UK Roofing Awards finalist nominations, useful proxies for technical depth in a sector with skills shortages in built-up felting and single ply.

Honourable mention: McConnell (Hugh LS McConnell)

Established 1929, headquartered in Kilmarnock with offices across the UK. Jumped from 22nd to 12th in the 2024 Roofing Today Top 40, then to 4th in 2025, a significant trajectory. Three integrated in-house divisions (Roofing, Sheeting & Cladding, Painting & Protective Coatings), Tier 1b on the hub South West framework, and predominantly directly-employed tradespeople.
