OUR EXPERIENCE

50+ YEARS OF INDUSTRY EXPERTISE

Founded by John Kenneth Hoare in the late 1950s, J.K. Hoare & Co began as a land drainage contractor focused on improving post-war agriculture.

Back in 1968, JKH patented a two piece headwall known as Type K. This name referred to the post-war Ministry of Agriculture classifications that could accommodate 4”, 6”, 9” or even 12” diameter pipes.

Over the decades, the company has evolved this specialist knowledge and is now a leading manufacturer of precast concrete products, adapting to market demands and solidifying its reputation in the construction industry.

Full service

From consultation, design, PROTOTYPING through to production

Specialising in bespoke concrete solutions, our in-house design team uses tools like SolidWorks and AutoCAD, along with 3D printing and prototyping, to create custom models for GRC and precast products. We manage the entire process—from consultation and steel fabrication to concrete casting and delivery—ensuring flexibility, as seen in our ability to retrofit headwalls with features like walkways and steel handrails. With advanced machinery, including a rebar bender and straddle carrier, we deliver high-quality results aligned with your project goals.
