“The proper layout is very important and we have built up a lot of trust with farmers over the last 30 years. We are in two or three farm yards every week and we have seen lots of good ideas and some not so good. Every farm yard is different and what works in one might not work in another. On top of that, the more people you talk to the more knowledge you gain. We incorporate the good ideas into our work.  When we call out to a farmer, we always endeavour to give the best advice we can,” Managing Director Eamon Doyle who is assisted in the day-to-day running of the business by his wife Joanne, explained.

Doyle Farm Buildings are fully insured, compliant with all Health & Safety regulations; C2 registered and hold a Current Tax Clearance Cert.

All work carried out by Doyle Farm Buildings adheres to the Department of Agriculture S101 Standards.

Doyle Farm Buildings has achieved compliance with the requirements of I.S. EN1090-1:2009+A1:2011 for CE marking of Structural Steel up to Execution Class 2 (EXC 2) which covers the fabrication of most of the structural steel used in Ireland and the UK. 

This achievement follows a significant programme of investment by the company in a factory production control system which covers stock management, skilled personnel, fabrication equipment and consumables together with the implementation of a regime of continuous inspection and testing of welding and painting procedures.

By achieving accreditation in these standards, this highlights that Doyle Farm Buildings have the ability to fabricate all types of structural steel in a manner which is to the highest standard and full traceability of the product is available.

So, how is business going at this point in time?

“Dairy men are currently investing a lot of time and money in developing their herds and facilities and we are simultaneously benefiting from these investments.  The future does seem to be bright for this sector of agriculture”  Eamon informs us.

“We are currently working on dairy sites in Kilkenny and Wexford and have more to start in the coming months.  In fact the next 12months of work is filling up fast.   We generally working in Carlow, Kilkenny, Wexford and Waterford and most of the enquiries we are receiving at the moment are all to with dairy – milking parlours, cubicles and so on.”

He added: “In fact, we have practically always been busy since we started up the business. There was a bit of slide in the early months of 2009 when the grants finished up but that has been the only slack time we have experienced .  Other than that, we have been kept going all the time.”
