About Us

Kilnbridge has a hard-earned reputation for delivering construction and civil engineering projects – particularly those with difficult or unusual challenges to resolve.

Founded in 1991 by our Chairman and Founder, Dermot McDermott as a general building and civil engineering contractor, we initially undertook builders’ work packages across the Canary Wharf development and southeast London. We quickly developed into a multi-disciplinary, national engineering and construction business that currently employs more than 1,000 people.

Today, Kilnbridge offers expertise in Building & Civil Engineering, Concrete Cutting and Controlled Demolition, Fire Protection and Waste Management.

These key service areas are supported by our in-house capabilities in Engineering & Design, Fabrication (K FAB) and Plant and construction equipment (K PLANT).

Working collaboratively with clients in a wide range of industry sectors, we capitalise fully on our teams’ in-depth knowledge, experience and skills to realise their vision.

Our diverse and highly talented workforce delivers outstanding and often award-winning bespoke solutions through innovation, courage and determination.

Kilnbridge proactively embraces equality, diversity and inclusion throughout the business, and has an industry leading safety culture. In March 2021 we became an employee-owned business, with the aim of safeguarding our future for the benefit of
everyone who works here.
