Building contractor Johns Lyng Group has acquired Hobart company Dynamic Constructions and Landscapes as part of a national expansion program.

Johns Lyng Group, which works with insurers on property restorations, will add 60 suppliers and contractors to its network.

The group works on about 2000 Tasmanian insurance claims per year.

State Manager Kelly Mitchell says the acquisition will expand the group’s insurance claim services and enhance its ability to respond to large-scale catastrophic events.
