Administrators for for Scottish building services giant McGill & Co have found a buyer for the business.
A company led by Dundee-based businessman Graeme Carling is now in exclusive talks about a deal.

“Agreement of the sale is subject to due diligence and contractual agreement, however, both parties are hopeful that a transaction can be concluded in early course. Further information will be available in due course.”

Its demise was blamed on challenging trading conditions and disputes and delays on a number of contracts.

The company trades through five divisions – mechanical & electrical services, facilities management, social housing, private residential and fibre and wireless.
