Based on rating, review volume, independent sources and credential evidence. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.
These credentials and memberships are attributed to named public sources. Check the source before relying on them.
What this protects you with: As a member of the Federation of Master Builders, you get independent vetting of the builder, the option of an insurance-backed warranty on the work and access to a dispute resolution service.
Open this source entry (opens in new tab)Killan Structural Limited is linked to a Companies House entry. This shows the business registration, not evidence of workmanship or service quality.
Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 39 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.
These sources do not label every image as completed work. The gallery may include projects, people, logos or certificates, so it does not count as completed-work evidence.

“Killan have just completed a job for us. Very competent, polite and tidy.”
“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 have a listed property and Killan Structural Ltd were recommended by the company who did a structural report for us. They arrived on time, were very polite and cleaned up after themselves and the work they did on the front of our house is fantastic. The cracks on the wall/lintel's are now completely gone and it looks like they were never there. Wouldnt hesitate to recommend this company!!”
High quality builders
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.

High quality work
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!

Resin repair to thermalite block wall
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.

Reliable, honest, professional and they get the job done!
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.

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.
Across 55 builders in Oldham, the typical rating is 4.9 out of 5. We compare against the same businesses a homeowner would find searching for this trade locally.
