About us

Built on 22 years.
Started from scratch.

Core Celtic is a West Wales building and maintenance company. Here's how it started and who we are.

Sam Sharkey — founder of Core Celtic Limited

"Some people fall into construction.
I grew up in it."

I've been on building sites since I was 16. In those 22 years I've started companies, run them, learned from them, and built something I'm genuinely proud of — a network of trusted, skilled tradespeople across West Wales that most people in this industry spend a lifetime trying to find.

Along the way I took an unexpected detour into events management. That taught me things construction rarely does — how to coordinate under pressure, how to communicate with clients, and how to run a project where the deadline is immovable and the expectations are sky high.

I brought all of that back into construction. Core Celtic is the result.

What we stand for

Every house a home

It's the standard we hold ourselves to on every job, whether it's a full renovation or a quick maintenance visit.

Honest, straight answers

We'll tell you what your property actually needs. Not what generates the biggest invoice. If it doesn't need doing, we'll say so.

A network you can trust

Core Celtic runs on a carefully built network of skilled tradespeople across West Wales. Every person we send to your property is someone we'd send to our own.

Where we work

Based in Cardigan, we cover a 30-mile radius across three counties. For the right project, we'll travel further.

Ceredigion

Pembrokeshire
