Builders & property renovations in Fallowfield

Fallowfield is Manchester's biggest student let area, and the standard has risen sharply. En-suites and second bathrooms are now a deciding factor.

Renovation work in Fallowfield

The housing stock in Fallowfield is dominated by dense student terraces, many already converted to five and six bed HMOs. That matters, because the right refurbishment specification for a stone terrace is not the right specification for a 1930s semi or a modern apartment. We survey first and price against what the building actually needs.

Adding a second bathroom usually pays for itself in one academic year on a six-bed Fallowfield property.

We work across M14 and the surrounding Manchester area, handling everything from single-room bathroom replacements to full property refurbishments between tenancies. All work is carried out by our own directly employed trades under one fixed-price contract, with a dated programme agreed before we start.
