Ten new jobs are set to be created as part of the plans.

Planning application documents stated: “It is proposed to upgrade the existing scaffolding facility – the modular office building will be replaced with modern, high-quality accommodation.

“The new offices will provide a central area to support the continuous growth of the business.”
