"Had our front wall (the only cavity wall on our house) ties replaced. John performed his investigation and is friendly clearly highly knowledgeable. He completed the job from the outside with minimum mess and fuss, and sorted a guarantee certificate from the Wall Tie Installers Federation to satisfy a condition of our mortgage agreement. Would highly recommend."

We had a number of works done to the front of our terraced property including lateral restraints, removing all the old cavity wall ties and replacing them. We are very happy with the work undertaken by John and his team, and just how accommodating they were with our timescales.
Fantastic knowledge and expertise with all elements of making my house structurally sound. I had a number of resin fixings, straps and ties to stabilise internal walls, the roof and gable end. A new dorma was also constructed with block work, steels and timber works which was finished with large windows which made the best of our amazing view over Manchester. All completed in a timely manor and it's the first set of builders I know who actually answer the phone. Many thanks!
I'd spotted John's van around and decided to contact him when we needed some bulges on the stonework sorting out. He was really approachable and did a good job, especially as everything was exactly as quoted. He kept us informed throughout and we're really pleased with the result.
The workmen were careful and considerate. The quality of all the work was exceptional and the price very reasonable.
Good workman, clean and tidy, excellent work done in all I asked for. Would use them again when required.
Our house is listed and over 400 years old. This gave rise to a number of problems which the joiner solved very well. Willingly came back to sort out a few minor problems.
The team worked hard ensuring the new brickwork matched the existing brickwork. The team were always polite and cleaned up properly when the work was completed. I would be happy to recommend 'Killan' to friends and family.
We have recently had a kitchen refit, bi-fold doors and a crafted front door. The team were professional and friendly and met our timescales and specifications. We are delighted with the work and would be happy to recommend to family and friends.
Excellent service from start to finish. From initial home visit and quotation for work punctual/precise. Work carried out was very professional - great worker Jamie, courteous, respectful of property/home. Excellent value for money - would highly recommend.
I have used Killan structural for work on my own home and rental properties. Work done by them (always to a high standard) includes a two storey extension with a modern glass pod and bi-folding doors attached to an existing Edwardian house - with all the associated issues involved. It was a six month project and the whole team were friendly and efficient. I have also used them for smaller jobs including wall ties, structural reinforcement work, roofing, as well as the refurb of a Victorian terraced rental. John is also my go to guy for recommending other tradespeople in the area who can be trusted ti do a good job - I would thoroughly recommend Killan Structural to family and friends.
Who should I contact to repair a crack in a thermalite block wall in a bedroom? A specialised job I wasn't sure was within the scope of an everyday builder. Luckily, I was introduced to John Killan who quickly diagnosed the necessary repair work. A quotation followed within a day or two. The workmen arrived on schedule were courteous and sympathetic to carpets etc. The resin repair work was undertaken amazingly quickly. Plastering followed a few days later and was of a similar high quality. The virtually invisible repair exceeded all expectations.
We had work done on an existing extension to convert to a pitched roof and remove an internal wall then fit a new kitchen and downstairs toilet. The work was completed on schedule, to a high standard and within budget. Communication and organisation during the project was excellent. There was good attention to detail throughout. We are very pleased with the result especially the look and feel of the space created. Thanks very much!
I instructed Killan Structural to carry out works at my house earlier this year, which involved taking down an existing structure, reclaiming the stone, taking down internal walls, putting in RSJs to create an open plan living space and using the reclaimed stone to form new exterior walls. John and Bob Killan, and everyone in their team, provided an excellent service from start to finish. All of the work was done on time, on budget and to a very high standard. I would strongly recommend them to anyone undertaking any building projects in and around Oldham/Greater Manchester, especially any that involve significant structural alterations.
