Where we work

Facilities management in Manchester

We deliver planned and reactive facilities management across Manchester and the North West. Indicative regional UK facilities management costs run £12–£22 per square foot a year for comparable service levels, and regional commercial cleaning £11–£20 an hour against London's £20.50–£26.80 (Priority First and SME Brief, 2026).

Manchester contracts tend to be mixed-use: offices, light industrial and retail in the same portfolio, often across several sites within half an hour of each other. That density is an advantage — shared supervision and travel is where a regional multi-site contract genuinely costs less than the same square footage in London.

FAQ

Manchester facilities management FAQs

Is facilities management cheaper in Manchester than London?

On a like-for-like specification, usually yes. Regional UK ranges run £12–£22 per square foot against £18–£32 in prime central London, driven mainly by labour and travel cost.

Can you cover several Greater Manchester sites on one contract?

Yes — clustered sites share supervision and travel, which is the main reason a multi-site contract prices better per square foot than the same buildings bought separately.
