Winwick builders — extensions, steel and refurbishments
Small parish village on the northern edge of Warrington around St Oswald's church.
Working in Winwick
Blades Building is a family-run Ltd company based in Westbrook, Warrington, with over 35 years in the trade. Winwick sits about 3 miles north of Warrington, reached via A49 close to M6 J22. Most properties we look at here are older village cottages plus modern detached, 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.
