Steel beam installation & wall removal in Urmston & Flixton
Urmston, Flixton and Davyhulme are full of Edwardian and 1930s semis, where the dining room and kitchen are separated by a load-bearing wall that's begging to come out, and the back of the house is ready for a full-width opening.
We work across Urmston, Flixton, Davyhulme and Lostock, and regularly fit steel for the kitchen fitters and extension builders busy in this part of Trafford.
Urmston and Flixton fall under Trafford Council building control, or a registered building control approver.
