A COTSWOLD plumbing, heating and electrical engineering company CP Jefferies Ltd has been bought by local entrepreneurs Charlie von Bock and Rob Williams.

The company, based in Ampney Crucis, was started by Charlie Jefferies who will continue at the firm for some time to allow for a smooth transition to the new ownership.

“CP Jefferies is a well-known local company, Charlie Jefferies has built this with his hands-on approach, so he knows every customer and everyone knows him,” said Rob.

“That continuity and friendly connection is something we don’t want to lose.

“He is going to stay with the company for a quite some time, and we will do our best to honor the company he has created, whilst looking to add some exciting extra services,” he added.

Rob also owns renewables company Williams Renewables Ltd, while Charlie owns building firm Cornerstone Design and Build Ltd.

The pair assure that the services at the heart of CP Jefferies will remain the same.

That is boiler servicing, heating system installation and emergency heating all remaining at the helm. In addition, they will be offering a range of extra services to give their customers the opportunity to improve their homes at every level.

With an impressive employee count of 28, Rob and Charlie are determined to keep CP Jefferies as the efficient close knit family team that is being passed on by Charlie and Heather Jefferies.
