Grey Ellie Works is an owner-run, UK-based facilities, maintenance, and infrastructure support company led by founder Troy Strydom. Originally from Zimbabwe, Troy built the business around a simple philosophy: show up, solve the problem, and leave the site better than you found it.

Backed by a capable team, multiple mobile workshops, and a wide range of owned equipment, we support commercial, industrial, and public-sector sites across the UK. From fabrication and electrical work to reactive maintenance, grounds care, and specialist cleaning, we take on jobs of all sizes — anywhere, at any time.

Our reputation has been shaped by reliability, determination, and a habit of finding solutions where others can’t.

Resourcefulness

We’re known for “making a plan” — finding practical, effective solutions to complex or unexpected site challenges.

Dependability

Clients rely on us because we turn up when others won’t, respond quickly, and follow through until the job is done.

Hands-On Leadership

With Troy still involved in the day-to-day operations, our standards remain personal, consistent, and uncompromising.

Quality & Safety

We work methodically and carefully, backed by SafeContractor accreditation and strong internal processes.

Commitment to Doing Things Properly

We’re not here to cut corners. Every installation, repair, or maintenance task is completed with long-term durability in mind.

We work across a wide range of commercial and industrial settings, including:

• Logistics & distribution centres
• Warehousing & industrial estates
• Retail parks
• Commercial properties
• Schools & public-sector buildings
• Property & facilities management groups
• Multi-site operators

Whether it’s a quick fix or long-term maintenance schedule, we adapt to the scale and urgency of each site.
