Overview

Founded in 1973, AC Whyte & Co Ltd is a family-run contractor that delivers large-scale retrofit, external wall insulation, cladding remediation and, more recently, new-build construction services across Scotland. The company partners primarily with local authorities and housing associations, handling projects from early-stage assessment and design through to execution. Current work includes a multi-year high-rise retrofit programme with Perth & Kinross Council that encompasses insulation, roofing, windows, heating systems and lift upgrades. AC Whyte employs 94 staff and plans to add 20 new roles—including site managers, quantity surveyors and operatives—as part of its growth strategy. Management forecasts 20% revenue growth over the next year, supported by fresh capital and a focus on diversifying into new-build construction while deepening retrofit and cladding expertise. The firm also invests in community outreach and skills development initiatives to bolster the local construction talent pipeline. Recent funding will be used to upgrade internal systems, expand project capacity and sustain long-term, sustainable growth.
