Surface Experts Ltd, formerly East End Asphalt Company Ltd, has acquired Bermuda Ornamental Concrete Products and will relocate the business to its Hamilton Parish facility this summer.

The long-established concrete decor and landscaping business will now operate under the name Ornamental Concrete Products Ltd and move from its Vesey Street site in Devonshire to SEL’s Duck’s Puddle location on June 1.

Known for its distinctive wall plaques, paving stones, columns and balustrades, the acquired company has been in business for nearly 40 years.

“Bermuda Ornamental Concrete Products has served Bermuda for nearly four decades, and we are pleased to add this company to the SEL brand,” said Randy Rochester, chief executive of Polaris Holding Company Ltd, which owns SEL.

“We are in a two-month transition period, after which, we look forward to serving Ornamental Concrete Products Ltd customers at our Duck’s Puddle location,” he added.

The move is part of a broader strategy by Polaris to diversify its portfolio and bolsters SEL’s presence in the construction supply market, bringing decorative and structural concrete elements under its umbrella.

Polaris also owns Stevedoring Services Ltd, Equipment Sales and Rentals Ltd and Duck’s Puddle Properties Ltd. SEL, a fully Bermudian-owned subsidiary of Polaris, rebranded from East End Asphalt in 2023 as it expanded beyond paving into broader surface and infrastructure solutions.
