Background:
In August 2016 we managed to secure our new, larger premises that will be our home for the foreseeable future. We are still conveniently located in Prestwich, just off the M60 motorway. The building dates back to 1892, over the years it has been a Co-op building, a butchers and slaughterhouse (with a path connecting the cellar to Heaton Park), a sewing factory and most recently a plumbers merchants.
The pictures below give a snapshot of the condition of the building at the start of our works:
Renovation:
The renovation was a lengthy process that included taking down and rebuilding the gable end, roof works, extending the building at the back to provide a loading bay, full rewire, plumbing throughout, steel work, new windows throughout and so on. The pictures below demonstrate just some of the steps along the way!

What this means for PressBoost:
This new headquarters will provide the base for PressBoost as we continue to grow and develop as a company. At c.4000 sq/ft it is more than big enough to sustain us as we continue to offer quality service and repair to all makes of pressure and booster equipment across the country.
Also, this now provides us with enough workshop space for PressBoost at the new site, whilst our sister company PumpCare Ltd have moved into our previous premises.

The FINISHED product!
In January 2017 we completed the long awaited move in, over time we have gradually added the finishing touches and kitted out the workshop. The end product is something we are all very proud of and we hope to enjoy many years here. We are committed to never standing still and striving to improve the quality of the service we provide, this is one big step along the way!
