Home / About Us
A family-built firm. Every trade on the books. One number, one team, one accountable contractor from quote to handover.

One van. One phone. One promise: turn up when we said we would, do the job properly, and don't leave until the customer was happy. That's the whole pitch.
Within a few years we'd grown across Durham, Sunderland and Newcastle. Not by acquiring anyone. Not by undercutting anyone. By keeping the trades in-house, keeping the standards up, and keeping the phones manned.
Now we're the biggest and busiest all-trades firm in the region. Same family. Same values. More vans.
Most of what we do is just doing the job properly. But there are rules we won't break, regardless of the price tag.
The trades on your job work for ATKINSONS. No middlemen, no margin-stacking, no "the guy will be there Tuesday".
Same person from mobilisation to handover. Named, accountable, reachable. Daily site visits.
Day or night, weekday or bank holiday. Someone picks up. Someone helps. Burst pipes don't wait for office hours.
Cut a corner once and you'll have to come back. We'd rather do the job properly the first time and move on.

"I started ATKINSONS because finding a builder you could actually trust in the North East was harder than it should have been. Too many firms over-promise, under-deliver, then disappear halfway through the job.
We hire local. We train local. We sponsor local. The people on your job grew up round here. They take it personally when the work isn't right because their name's on the van."
Dale Atkinson — Founder & Managing Director
