Mike is MD, he's our founder, our lead surveyor and our forward thinker. He loves creating, crafting, grafting and anything cool.

​In 2006, Mike founded Cobalt Carbon Free. Since then, he's attended every initial enquiry appointment to discuss, assess and advise. Mike has over 30 years experience in construction and business management and most loves helping customers achieve their dreams. Mike has a keen eye for design, quality and detail at every level of the organisation. This includes exhausting ideas how to grow, access new markets, down to  discovering new innovative ways to build and develop the business. Delivering every project to the clients budget and to the highest possible standards of design; technology, build quality, delivery and customer service!

Chris leads and manages all the operational aspects of the business. Sometimes he's in the office, sometimes he's onsite; whether he's up a ladder, under a floor, or on a roof, his phone is always ringing and he's always making people laugh! At the weekend he's either playing, watching or talking about football...

Karen is in control of the day-to-day finances, making sure the accounts are accurate and up to date including all legal compliance measures. She loves making time to see family and friends, whether visiting restaurants, the theatre, or entertaining at home, she's always having fun!

Scott
Manager

Lisa coordinates the creative thinking and communicates it through a love of good design and great customer service. Alongside managing our marketing, Lisa manages an overflowing wardrobe, energetic dog and two toddlers at home!

Penny is most likely your first point of contact as our customer service queen. When she's not answering the phone or responding to emails, she can usually be found making (the best) tea, braving new hobbies or crocheting!

Scott makes sure everything runs smoothly, drives efficiency and ensures exceptional customer service. Away from work, Scott explores stately homes, chases waterfalls and gets lost in the woods, ensuring family weekends are always an adventure!
