OUR STORY



EveryTrade was founded in 2009 by Chris Shaw, inspired by his vision to create a one-source solution for all building and maintenance requirements.
Recognising the inefficiencies and frustrations clients often faced when coordinating multiple trades, Chris set out to establish a company capable of managing every aspect of construction and maintenance under one roof.
His commitment to delivering exceptional customer service and high-quality workmanship quickly earned EveryTrade a strong reputation for reliability and excellence.









In 2019, Chris joined forces with his now business partner, Alex Riddick, to take EveryTrade to the next level. Alex brought extensive experience in the construction sector and shared Chris’s passion for quality and innovation. Together, they combined their expertise and leadership to expand EveryTrade’s services, streamline its operations, and strengthen its position as a trusted name in the industry.



With a focus on delivering tailored solutions for both residential and commercial clients, EveryTrade has grown into one of the most recognisable and leading construction and building services companies in the North West.
The company’s diverse offerings range from bespoke home improvements and HMO conversions to large-scale commercial construction and maintenance projects, all managed with professionalism and precision.

EveryTrade’s success is built on an unwavering commitment to quality, customer satisfaction, and a team of skilled tradespeople who share the founders’ values. Today, Chris and Alex continue to drive the company forward, ensuring EveryTrade remains a trusted partner for clients seeking exceptional building and maintenance services.
Looking to the future, Chris and Alex’s vision is to build a vertical, multi-strategy group of companies capable of serving everyone, from homeowners looking to improve their properties to businesses across the wider construction industry. By expanding their offerings and continuing to innovate, they aim to provide comprehensive solutions for all building and maintenance needs, cementing EveryTrade’s reputation as a leader in the sector for years to come.

WORD FOR IT

Chris and the team did a brilliant job on our extension. It’s a life changing transformation and our favourite place to be.
Communication was really important. Having robust conversations is a key part of any large scale job, however well it’s going. We felt we could raise concerns comfortably and this proved to be the case.

WORD FOR IT

From start to finish TDG EveryTrade were outstanding. A team of professionals who focus on making the homeowners dreams come true and they certainly did for us. The key thing I look for when appointing trades to work on my house is trust and I can’t wait to have them back to work on our next project, bi-folding doors!

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend TDG to family/friends. So happy with the kitchen extension. Chris and Keiran were always on hand to answer my questions and sort things out. The guys on the job were really friendly and made living on a building site a lot less stressful!! Thanks guys 😊
