NICE TO MEET YOU

I’m Andrew (Andy) Shaw

with over 35 years in the construction industry from apprenticeship, to working as a bricklayer, then starting my own business, running and expanding it for 15 years to a stage of making 20%+ net profit on turnover giving me flexibility to retire early. This has allowed me to take on other roles within construction to understand building companies and travel teaching others.
