BOARDMAN BUILDING CO. | MANCHESTER
Local Construction
Boardman Building Co works on residential projects across Greater Manchester, from terraced rebuilds in Chorlton and Whalley Range to loft conversions in Didsbury and side returns in Sale. Manchester's housing stock is hugely varied — pre-1900 brick terraces, 1930s semis, 1960s estates and modern timber-frame infills — and each one needs a different approach to structure, insulation and damp.
We cover the whole M area and surrounding postcodes, working on homes and small commercial properties throughout Chorlton, Didsbury, Whalley Range, Levenshulme, Stretford and Sale.
Recent Work

"Lee was doing some work that looked great for my neighbour and so I asked him to come and do some pointing and drain repairs for me. I was really happy with the workmanship, the price and the punctuality. Lee was not quite happy with the match of colour of some bricks he was going to use around my drain — he went off to get a better match! Great work overall."

"Very pleased with the work Lee and his team have done for us, removing an external door and installing a window in its place and plastering. They've done an excellent job. They go above and beyond to please you. I would highly recommend them to anybody."

"We used Boardman Builders to repurpose our old garage — they reduced the length to give us a bigger drive, got rid of the up and over door and bricked up the space, installed a new roof, entrance door and electrics. I love my new shed! Very happy with all the quality of work."
Julie Kinsella
Verified Client
"Lee is the upmost professional, he supported and guided us through the whole renovation process. He is reliable and hardworking, often staying late to ensure jobs were finished and always to a high standard. We cannot fault his work and have recommended him to all of our friends."

"I couldn't be happier with the Boardman Building Co. They have done a great job on my 3-storey extension and come up with some great ideas which I hadn't considered. Highly recommend for any project."
Phil Marriott

"Boardman building completed a double step outside my rear bi-folding doors. The quality of work was fantastic. Very easy to work with — Lee communicated about everything from start to finish. His knowledge of the trade was impressive and his organisation on the job was immaculate."
