Who we are

Wakefield builders.
Properly qualified.

Ascend Building Solutions Ltd is a Wakefield-based multi-trade contractor working across homes, schools, academies, care homes and commercial premises throughout Yorkshire.

Whether it's a loft conversion at home or a fire door replacement programme across a school site, you get the same thing: one point of contact, qualified people, and paperwork you can hand straight to an inspector.

Everyone on the team is fully DBS checked, asbestos awareness trained and works to CHAS-approved standards — so we're safe on site while your family, staff or pupils are still there.

Fire doors that work on the day it matters

A fire door is only as good as its installation. Wrong tolerances, missing intumescent strips or uncertified ironmongery and the whole door set fails — along with your compliance.

  • FD30 & FD60 compliant door sets, supplied and installed
  • Correct tolerances, intumescent strips and smoke seals
  • Certified ironmongery, closers and signage to spec
  • Upgrades and remedials where replacement isn't needed
  • Inspections with photographic records for your compliance file

What clients say

Straight talking.
Properly finished.

"We used the team for a fire door installation project and were really impressed with the service from start to finish. The work was completed professionally, on time and to a high standard. Communication throughout was excellent."

James TurnerWakefield

"We had our kitchen supplied and installed along with some bespoke joinery work. The whole process was straightforward, and the finished result looks fantastic. The team were friendly, tidy and clearly took pride in the quality of their work."

Sarah MitchellPontefract

"We needed urgent glazing and boarding following a broken window and the response was excellent. They arrived quickly, secured the property and arranged the replacement glazing. Professional, reliable and helpful throughout, especially given the emergency nature of the job."
