Home Refurbishments across Winwick (WA2)
Blades Building — a Warrington-based Ltd company covering Winwick and the wider Cheshire area. Rated 10/10 on Checkatrade across 36 reviews.
We do a lot of refurbishments in Winwick. The pattern in WA2 tends to be full bathroom refits with re-tiling and new suite — often part of a wider layout change rather than a standalone job — and being a small Ltd company means the same team is on site from strip-out through to hand-over, not a rotating crew of subs.

Winwick refurbishments — questions we're asked
How much mess should I expect if I stay in the house during a Winwick refurb?
We seal off working areas with dust curtains and vacuum daily. Most families in Winwick live around a phased refurb comfortably — we just plan sequencing around the bathroom and kitchen so you're never without both at once.
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.
Can you do just one room?
Yes — single-room refits are welcome. Bathrooms, snugs and utility conversions are common one-room jobs.
Can you refurbish a house I'm renting out in Winwick?
Yes — a big share of our refurb work around Winwick is between-tenancy refits. We turn a tired property around inside 2–4 weeks depending on scope and hand over EICR-compliant.
Do you carry out refurbishments on older Winwick properties?
Yes. Older stock around St Oswald's Church usually needs some replastering, updated electrics and heating tweaks alongside cosmetic work — we quote all of it up front.
