Built on Quality.
Driven by Delivery.
FTD is a multi-disciplined construction, refurbishment and maintenance contractor, delivering projects for clients across the North West and throughout the UK.
From commercial fit-outs and major refurbishment projects to healthcare environments, social housing, planned maintenance and reactive works, our strength lies in our ability to provide clients with a complete construction service backed by an experienced in-house multi-trade team.
FTD has grown by building long-term relationships with clients who trust us to deliver. Whether we are completing a major commercial refurbishment, working within a sensitive healthcare environment or responding to an individual maintenance call-out, our approach remains the same: quality workmanship, reliable service and a commitment to getting the job done properly.
Our Story
FTD has developed from a growing building contractor into a business capable of delivering increasingly complex and diverse construction projects.A major part of that growth has come through the trust placed in us by our clients. Many relationships have developed from an initial project into ongoing partnerships, with FTD subsequently delivering works across multiple sites and locations.Today, our portfolio spans commercial offices, healthcare and rehabilitation facilities, social housing, leisure, industrial premises, community facilities and heritage buildings.
Our experience ranges from high-value commercial fit-outs and specialist refurbishment programmes through to nationwide maintenance contracts and more than 1,500 reactive, void and capital works actions each year.That diversity is one of FTD's greatest strengths.

Live Environment Experience

Nationwide Capability
While our directly employed teams have a strong presence throughout the North West, FTD also delivers projects for clients across the UK
Delivering in Challenging Environments
Some of our most successful projects have been delivered in environments where careful planning is just as important as the construction itself.Our teams regularly operate within live offices, occupied residential properties, healthcare and rehabilitation facilities, care environments and operational industrial sites.We understand that construction cannot always happen in an empty building.Strategic programming, communication and coordination allow our teams to work around occupants, service users, employees and ongoing operations while maintaining safe working practices and keeping projects moving.This experience has helped FTD develop a reputation for delivering complex works in environments where safety, reliability and minimal disruption are essential.
Quality From Start to Finish
Quality is at the heart of how FTD operates.
Our directly employed workforce allows us to maintain greater control over workmanship throughout a project, while our experienced management team coordinates programmes, trades and client requirements from initial mobilisation through to handover.
We pride ourselves on completing works correctly and providing clients with a contractor they can rely on long after the first project has finished.
Our aim isn't simply to complete one job. It's to build relationships that lead to the next one.
Built Around Our Clients
Every project is different, and our approach reflects that.
We work closely with clients, consultants and professional teams to understand what needs to be achieved before developing a practical delivery strategy around the programme, environment and operational requirements of each project.
That collaborative approach has enabled FTD to develop long-standing relationships across multiple sectors, with clients repeatedly trusting our teams to deliver additional projects.
For us, repeat business is one of the strongest measures of a job well don
Social Value
We believe the impact of a construction project should extend beyond the physical works we deliver.
Where possible, FTD supports local employment and local trades, helping investment in our projects contribute to the communities in which we work. We also look for opportunities to provide additional value to clients, residents and service users.
Our approach to social value is straightforward: when we leave a project, we want to have made a positive contribution to the people and community around it.
Building Relationships. Delivering Quality.
FTD continues to grow by maintaining the principles that have driven the business from the beginning: quality workmanship, dependable service, strong client relationships and pride in what we deliver.
Our expanding in-house workforce and increasingly diverse project portfolio allow us to take on larger and more technically demanding projects while retaining the responsive, hands-on approach our clients value.
Whether you require a complete refurbishment, commercial fit-out, planned works programme or a dependable maintenance partner, FTD Building Contractors has the people, experience and capability to deliver.
