Areas we cover
Based on Market Street in Birkenhead, working across the whole Wirral peninsula and into Liverpool and Cheshire for commercial and facade work.
Brick Rip and Dig cover the whole Wirral peninsula from a base in Birkenhead — Birkenhead, Prenton, Oxton, Wallasey, New Brighton, Moreton, Upton, Greasby, Hoylake, Meols, West Kirby, Caldy, Heswall, Pensby, Bebington, Port Sunlight, Bromborough, Neston and Parkgate — plus Ellesmere Port and, for commercial and facade remediation work, Liverpool and the wider Merseyside area. Most of the peninsula is inside a thirty-minute run from our office.
The Wirral isn't one place
Sandstone in Heswall. Salt spray in New Brighton. Listed brickwork in Port Sunlight. High water table in Moreton. Solid-wall Victorian terraces in Birkenhead. Each one changes what a job costs and how it should be built — which is why we quote after a site visit and not over the phone.
