About this area

Blades Building is a Warrington-based refurbishment contractor working across Lowton (WA3) and the surrounding Wigan Metropolitan Borough Council area. Most of our Lowton customers live in semi-detached and detached family housing — the sort of stock you see between Golborne and Culcheth — and know the property well enough to want a builder who plans the job around it rather than around a standard template.

Common questions

Lowton refurbishments — questions we're asked

Do you decorate, or do I need a separate decorator?

We have decorators we work with on almost every job, so quotes are usually turnkey unless you specifically want to arrange painting yourself.

How much mess should I expect if I stay in the house during a Lowton refurb?

We seal off working areas with dust curtains and vacuum daily. Most families in Lowton live around a phased refurb comfortably — we just plan sequencing around the bathroom and kitchen so you're never without both at once.
