Hartnall Collins was founded by Elliot Collins, in 2010.
Ultimately, it was Elliot’s passion for innovative design, using cutting edge technology that led him to start his own business. And as the Hartnall Collins team has grown, so has our reputation. In the 10 years since completing our first job, we have continually been rewarded with repeat business from satisfied customers. This is something we feel speaks volumes about our ethics and commitment to our clients’ needs, no matter the size of the job.
Elliot has over 25 years’ experience working in the construction and fit-out industries, which includes working for some of the UK’s leading house builders and commercial fit-out companies in senior management roles. Elliot started his career working for a local traditional contractor and progressed to work for Jarvis PLC, Galliford Try and Parkeray, overseeing major projects for numerous blue-chip clients. This enabled Elliot to understand the business from all perspectives and the importance of working in partnership with clients to get the best result.
