Building work in Ingol

Ingol is a mostly suburban part of Preston, made up of good sized post war and later estate housing, with semis and detached homes common across the area. Many properties have generous plots, driveways and integral or attached garages. Newer development sits close by around Cottam and Lightfoot Green. Owners here often look to extend, modernise older kitchens and bathrooms, or convert space they already have into something more useful.

Structural Alterations in Ingol, common questions

Straight answers for your project and the local area.

Can you remove a load bearing wall in Ingol?

Do you cover the villages and areas around Ingol as well?

Yes, we work right across this side of Preston. Alongside Ingol we regularly take on jobs in Cottam, Tanterton, Lightfoot Green, Lea, Greyfriars and Lea Town. Being based near Broughton, all of these are an easy run for us, so getting to your property and back is never a problem.

Can you work on the older estate houses common in Ingol?

Absolutely. A lot of Ingol housing is post war and later estate build, and we know how these properties are put together. From dated layouts and old services to worn brickwork, we improve and repair them sympathetically, keeping what works and updating what does not to suit modern living.

Are you a genuinely local builder?

We are. Broughton Building Company is based near Broughton, just a short drive from Ingol, so we are local rather than travelling in from afar. That means quicker visits, easier communication and a builder who knows the area and stands behind the work long after the job is finished.
