Our History

Our story began in 1897 in Little Hulton, Salford, when brothers George and John Seddon set up G&J Seddon. More than 125 years later, the business they founded is still family-owned, now by the fourth and fifth generations, and still driven by the same values of hard work, pride and doing things properly. Along the way, we’ve come through two world wars, economic and political crises and a global pandemic. We’ve adapted, grown and kept building through all of it. We’ve trained apprentices since 1937, grown into a family of specialist businesses and helped shape communities across the North West, Midlands and beyond. Explore the milestones that made us who we are today.
