Modern brick and white-render duplex housing under a bright sky

About us

Family-led. Commercially run. Quietly proud of the work.

Wilmur Construction has been delivering buildings across the North West since 2007, from our base in Prestwich, Manchester.

Our story

Eighteen years of building in the North West.

Wilmur Construction Limited was incorporated in 2007. We started out as a small residential contractor with a handful of local clients and a reputation for finishing on time, which in this industry is worth more than any marketing.

Over the years we have grown carefully. We took on extension work, then full new-build homes. Developers asked us to deliver multi-unit schemes for them. Business owners asked us to fit out their offices, shops and units. We said yes when we could deliver well, and no when we could not.

Today we work across four pillars (new build, extensions, commercial fit-out, developer partnerships) from one Manchester base, with a tight in-house team and a long-standing subcontractor network. The decisions still get made the same way they did in 2007: face to face, with the project in front of us.

How we work

Three commitments we hold ourselves to.

01

Predictable programmes.

Programmes are set realistically at the start, then defended through the build. If something changes, you hear about it from us before it becomes a problem.

02

Transparent costs.

Itemised pricing, open-book on variations, no hidden margins layered on subcontractor invoices. The number we quote is the number we work to.

03

One point of accountability.

Every project has a named lead, from kick-off through to the end of defects. You speak to them, not to a switchboard, and not to a different person every week.

Why clients pick us

Four reasons clients keep coming back.

None of these are unique on their own. The combination is what makes the difference.

01

Single-team delivery.

Residential, commercial and developer work all run through the same in-house team. You get the same standard of finish whether you are building one home or twenty.

02

Local roots, regional reach.

Based in Prestwich. Working across Greater Manchester and the wider North West. Close enough to be on site fast when something needs a decision.

03

Long-term subcontractors.

The same trusted teams come back year after year. Continuity, not pot-luck.

04

Director-led decisions.

Decisions are made by the people whose name is on the door, not three levels above the site team.

Our team

A small team you will actually meet.

This section will be populated with named team members and roles ahead of launch. For now, every enquiry is read by the directors personally.

Standards

The credentials behind the work.

This section will be expanded as accreditation badges are confirmed. Typical UK main-contractor credentials include CHAS, Constructionline, FMB and ISO 9001.
