KELTY firm John Meiklem Drainage Contractors is under new ownership after a deal with a Kirkcaldy plant-hire business.
Meiklem, based out of Kelty Industrial Park, officially handed over to James Penman earlier this month and will now operate as a standalone business within the group.
All 15 members of staff have been kept on, while director John Meiklem will also advise and consult moving forward.
James Penman said, "That's the first week completed and it's been a big thing. But if something's not broken you don't fix it we've been very positive about it.
"We've worked together before and we've been talking for a couple of years and now it's done.
"It's all gone really well and I'm looking forward to seeing how it progresses."
