Who we are

A family-run builder with an obsession for doing it right.

Ashworth Building Co. was founded in 2009 by brothers Tom and Jack Ashworth on a simple principle: build every home as if it were our own. Three generations of trade craft, one dedicated team, and a reputation across Leeds and Harrogate built entirely on referrals.

From a single-storey kitchen extension to a full period renovation, we manage the whole job in-house — no subbing out, no surprises. You get one point of contact, a fixed written quote, and a finish that lasts.

A tired 1930s semi, reimagined for modern family life.

"Tom and the team built our rear extension and I genuinely can't fault them. Turned up every day, kept everything spotless and the finish is superb. Neighbours keep asking who did it."

Sarah & Mark P.Rear extension · Roundhay

"We'd been let down by two builders before Ashworth. What a difference — honest quote, no hidden extras, and they finished a day early. The loft conversion has transformed the house."

James H.Loft conversion · Meanwood

"From the first visit they felt different — professional, patient and full of ideas. Our new kitchen-diner is the heart of the home now. Would recommend to anyone."

Good to know

Questions we're often asked.

Can't see what you're looking for? Give us a call on 0113 496 0123 — we're happy to talk it through, no obligation.

How much does an extension cost?

As a rough guide, single-storey extensions in our area typically start from around £2,000–£2,800 per m², depending on spec and groundworks. We give you a firm, itemised quote after a free site visit so there are no surprises.

Do you handle planning and building control?

Yes. We work with trusted architects and can manage the full planning application, structural calculations and building control sign-off on your behalf — or work alongside your own designer.

Will I be able to stay in my home during the work?

In most cases, yes. We phase the work, use dust screens and keep disruption to a minimum. For larger renovations we'll talk you through the options at the quote stage.

Are you insured and guaranteed?

Absolutely. We carry £5m public liability insurance, are FMB registered, and every project is covered by our 10-year workmanship guarantee.

How far in advance do I need to book?

We're typically booking 6–10 weeks ahead for larger projects. Get in touch early — a free consultation costs nothing and secures your place in the diary.
