What Grade 2 Structural Repairs Limited does

Grade 2 Structural Repairs Limited is a UK specialist contractor in structural concrete repair and protection, founded in 1996 and headquartered in Birkenhead, Wirral. The company operates as a national contractor serving both private and public sectors from a North West base, with a second regional office in Salford, Manchester that runs its Liquid Roofing and Waterproofing division. Its service portfolio spans condition surveys, concrete repair, corrosion control (including cathodic protection), specialist coatings, balcony coatings, anchor fixings, stone restoration, liquid roofing, sealants, and basement tanking, supported by a wholly-owned subsidiary, Grade 2 Impact, which runs a Birkenhead-based blast-cleaning and protective-coatings workshop.

The business is built around physical, specification-driven work using approved materials from leading manufacturers — Sika (including Liquid Plastics QA and MonoTop), Fosroc, Remmers, Triflex, Helifix (Helibeam system), Belzona, Emseal, Tremco Illbruck, Garland, and Resimac — and specialist equipment such as DOFF high-temperature steam cleaning and TORC swirling-vortex cleaning systems. All works are quoted on a project-by-project basis (documented contracts range from £140k to ~£400k), delivered by a 100% CSCS carded workforce holding ISO 9001, CHAS, Constructionline, SAFEcontractor, ContractorPlus, and Link-up pre-qualifications.

The firm earns revenue through professional-services contracts with commercial property owners, property managers, local authorities, housing associations, NHS bodies, Network Rail, heritage organisations, and residential block managers. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales driven by phone inquiry (0151 606 8000 / 0161 822 8000), email, and a website populated with detailed case studies across rail, heritage, residential, commercial, and specialist verticals. The company is privately held with no disclosed external investment, no parent company, and a small core headcount of 6 supplemented by subcontracted site labour.
