Well-known Cheshire canal village with conservation areas and sandstone cottages.
Working in Lymm
Blades Building is a family-run Ltd company based in Westbrook, Warrington, with over 35 years in the trade. Lymm sits about 6 miles south-east of Warrington, reached via M6 J20 / M56 J9. Most properties we look at here are period cottages, sandstone villas and prime detached homes, 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.
