Faskin Group acquired by Cardo Group

Faskin Group, one of Scotland’s most trusted names in the roofing industry, has been sold to Cardo Group in a transaction advised by KBS Corporate.

Founded in 2010 by Frank and Karen O’Hara, and based on the west side of Glasgow, Faskin Group primarily works with public-sector organisations in delivering ongoing maintenance contracts.

The company has earned a strong reputation for excellent service, long-standing client relationships and significant repeat business.

In a transaction advised by Sean Clarkson, KBS Corporate Deal Executive, Faskin has joined Cardo Group, which was named one of the UK’s 50 fastest-growing companies in 2025.

Cardo is a Cardiff-based building maintenance provider across the social housing and public sector in the UK and Ireland. The addition of Faskin’s highly skilled local workforce provides specialist local roofing expertise and the ability to offer more value to Cardo’s clients nationally.

Faskin Group will continue to operate under the ongoing leadership of Frank and Karen O’Hara as they integrate into the Cardo Group.

“Excellence and quality have always been at the centre of Faskin Group,” said Frank. “We are proud of the team we’ve built, the apprentices we’ve supported, and the strong reputation we’ve earned for delivering work we stand behind.

“Joining Cardo allows us to build on that foundation – broadening our capabilities and supporting more clients, while continuing to invest in the people and standards that Faskin Group is known for.”

Liam Bevan, CEO of Cardo Group, commented: “We are pleased to welcome Frank, Karen and the entire Faskin Group team into Cardo. Their reputation for quality, their hands-on leadership and their commitment to developing people, especially apprentices, perfectly align with our values.

“Faskin Group’s deep expertise and strong market presence in Scotland enhances our national service delivery, while supporting our long-term investment in skilled local workforces.”

KBS Corporate’s Sean Clarkson was delighted to bring the sale process to such a positive conclusion and commented: “It has been an absolute pleasure working with both parties throughout this transaction. The professionalism and commitment demonstrated by everyone has been instrumental in achieving a successful outcome.

“I am confident this agreement lays a strong foundation for continued growth and long-term prosperity, and I look forward to seeing the positive impact this partnership will bring in the years ahead.”
