History

The roots of the organisation were formed in 1976 when Jim Henry set up a construction business focusing on small-scale construction projects within the Magherafelt area of Northern Ireland.

With a passion for working hard and getting the job done, Jim’s leadership saw the business go from strength to strength. In 1986, we became known as the Henry Brothers as we delivered more projects of a larger scale and in locations beyond County Londonderry.

A series of acquisitions throughout the 1990s saw the formation of the wider Henry Group which consists of a number of manufacturing and construction sector companies, ranging from external construction through to interiors fit-out.

Today, Henry Brothers is recognised as a leading construction firm with more than 200 direct employees based across Northern Ireland, England and Scotland.

We look for opportunities where we can add value for our clients, and to their local communities. This approach has established Henry Brothers as specialists in education, defence, blue light, accommodation, commercial and healthcare sectors.

Awards

Our work has received recognition across a variety of categories – from construction innovation to safety to environmental awareness and wellbeing – at both local and international award ceremonies.
