Builders in Birchwood
Planned 1980s new-town neighbourhoods next to Birchwood Park.
Working in Birchwood
Blades Building is a family-run Ltd company based in Westbrook, Warrington, with over 35 years in the trade. Birchwood sits about 4 miles north-east of Warrington, reached via M62 J11. Most properties we look at here are 1980s estate housing, courtyards and cul-de-sacs, and the housing type genuinely changes how a job is planned — access for steel and skips, ground conditions, and how new work ties into the existing structure all follow from it.
Andy visits personally, and there is no call centre in between. If a project is not realistic in your property, we will say so.
