Think Heating, Think Read & Errington

Read & Errington were founded in August 1996 by Martin Read, Alan Errington and Graham Read, with a total workforce of six.  Over the past 20 plus years, the Company has followed a continuous path of steady and controlled growth.

Read & Errington now employ approximately 50 staff, of which 15 have come through the Company’s apprentice training scheme.  In 2006 Adam Farrar, himself a former trainee, joined the board of Directors and in 2012 both Graham Read and Alan Errington retired from the board but are still involved within the business.
