WHO WE ARE

Engineers first.

CoreComms is the trading name of CORE COMMS LTD, registered at Companies House under number 11845365. We're based at Unit 4 Willan Enterprise Centre, Fourth Avenue, Trafford Park, Manchester M17 1DB.

We've been trading since 25 February 2019. The work covers ten service lines. CCTV, data cabling, fibre optic, business WiFi, WiFi site surveys, Starlink for business, commercial AV, telephone systems, hardware supply, and healthcare IT. You can see all of our services here.

Most of our clients sit in four sectors: healthcare, schools and universities, manufacturing, and fire and rescue. They have one thing in common, sites where the network has to keep working.

Healthcare

GP surgeries, dental practices and care homes.

Education

Schools, colleges and universities across the region.

Manufacturing

Factories and multi-site industrial operators.

Fire & Rescue

Mission-critical environments where the network must keep working.
OUR STORY

Started small.
Stayed deliberate.

Damian Lawlor founded the company in February 2019. Jayne Lawlor joined as director in March 2020. Both still run the business day to day.

The wider team carries over 50 years' combined experience across cabling, CCTV, AV, telephony and IT. A lot of our work comes from repeat clients and referrals. Schools that bring us back when they open a new building, GP practices that recommend us to neighbouring surgeries, manufacturers that use us across multiple sites.

We deliberately stay small. It's why the person who quotes a job is usually the person who runs it. Our team trains continuously to keep on top of changes in cabling standards, network kit, CCTV technology and AV systems.

The wider team

Our engineers, project managers and back-office team handle every job from survey through to aftercare.

The kit we install,
sourced from people we trust.

We work with established suppliers and manufacturers across cabling, fibre, networking and security, partners we've worked with for years.

OUR APPROACH

How we run every project.

1

Site survey

Every project starts with us on site. We walk the building, look at what's already there, and ask what you actually need the system to do. You get a written summary at the end of it.
2

Design

We turn the survey into a proposal in plain English: what we'll install, where it goes, what it costs, and what's optional versus essential. If there's a cheaper way to get most of the result, we'll say so.
3

Installation

Our engineers do the install. Cabling pulled neatly, kit mounted properly, everything labelled and tested before we leave. In occupied buildings, we plan around your day so disruption stays minimal.
4

Aftercare

You get a direct line to the team that did the work. Most clients come back when they expand, refurbish or open a new site.
