About Us

Andy Gait has worked within the External Wall Insulation and Cladding industry for over 15 years and has a deep knowledge of the range of systems and solutions required to ensure projects are specified and delivered correctly.

Starting at Alumasc Facades in 2011 as a Sales Manager, Andy always noticed a gap in the market for high quality installation work. This led Andy to set up Profac Ltd in 2018 and since then the company has gone from strength to strength and grown organically to what we hope will be a £7m turnover year in 2026.

Outside work, Andy has been married for 22 years to his lucky wife Mel and has 3 children a cat and a Sprollie dog called Lottie!

Gardening and walking the dog are Andys main pass times but a few beers here and there is not unheard of too!
