Home / Business & Charities
24/7 all-trades cover for councils, housing associations, charities, care settings and businesses across the North East. Planned and reactive maintenance, voids, fit-outs and multi-site programmes, all under one contract.
ATKINSONS is an all-trades commercial maintenance contractor working across the North East and, for multi-site clients, the whole of the UK. We deliver planned and reactive maintenance, voids turnaround, fit-outs and refurbishments for councils, housing associations, charities, care providers and businesses, with every trade on our own books.
That means one point of contact, one set of compliance documents, and one firm accountable for the whole estate, instead of juggling separate suppliers for gas, electrical, building, roofing and grounds. Our phones are manned 24/7, our trades are qualified and certified, and we carry £10m public and employer's liability insurance.

When something fails, you need it fixed fast, not passed between contractors. As reactive maintenance contractors covering Durham and the wider North East, we respond to breakdowns, leaks, electrical faults, heating failures, security and make-safe work, with agreed response times to suit your contract.
Our call centre is manned around the clock, and because every trade is in-house, one call covers any fault.

The cheapest repair is the one you never need. As planned maintenance contractors across the North East, we keep buildings safe, compliant and in good order through scheduled servicing, inspections, certificates and cyclical repairs, planned in advance rather than waiting for things to fail.
We agree schedules of rates, programmes and reporting up front, across single buildings or multi-site portfolios.

Empty properties cost money every day they sit unlet. We turn voids around quickly and to a lettable standard, coordinating every trade in-house so there's no waiting between contractors. Clearance, repairs, certificates, decoration and making good, handled as one job.
Ideal for housing associations, councils and private landlords with portfolios to keep occupied.

Maintenance and refurbishment in occupied care homes, supported living, charity facilities and community buildings demands a careful approach. As care home maintenance contractors, we plan works around residents, staff and service users, with the right checks and a respectful team.
For charities, we deliver charity building maintenance cost-consciously, keeping facilities safe and open without stretching tight budgets.

From office and retail fit-outs to full commercial refurbishments, we deliver projects to a fixed programme with every trade in-house. Partitions, electrics, data, mechanical, flooring, joinery and finishes, all under one accountable contractor and one Contracts Manager.
We work around your operation, phasing the work and going out of hours where needed to keep you trading.
