Co Kerry-based bathroom refurbishment business Bathrooms 4U has announced the creation of 70 new permanent full-time jobs which will more than double its workforce over the next three years.
The Tralee company said the new jobs will support the business as it continues to expand out of Munster and into Leinster.
Bathrooms 4U fits both commercial and residential bathrooms. It employs plumbers, fitters and tilers and so provides a complete service which removes risk for businesses and homeowners who traditionally have to rely on multiple tradespeople.
The company also plans to launch its ecommerce website in the coming months.
Alan O'Sullivan, CEO and founder of Bathrooms 4U, said its commercial work was naturally impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.
But he said the company saw a major boom in residential fittings as people spent more time at home with many having more savings due to a lack of opportunities to spend on things like holidays.
"Our ambition is to increase our footprint in Leinster in 2021 and move into the UK beyond that; these jobs are a pivotal part of our growth strategy for the next three years," he added.
