From the moment Matthew Anderson picked up a paintbrush as an apprentice, he knew quality craftsmanship mattered.
After winning a CITB SkillBuild competition, earning an NVQ Level 3 in Painting & Decorating and completing a foundation degree in construction, he honed his plastering skills working for property developers. Today that experience informs everything we do. We listen carefully, advise honestly, and refuse to cut corners – so your project is finished to a standard you’re proud of.

High-quality interior decorating for homes and properties of all sizes. We handle full room redecorations, feature walls, colour changes and fine finishing, always with careful preparation and clean, sharp results.

Protect and refresh the outside of your property with durable exterior finishes. We paint masonry, render, woodwork and metalwork, helping your building look its best and stand up to the weather.

Professional plastering services including skim coating, re-skimming, patch repairs and ceiling finishes. We also repair cracked, damaged or uneven surfaces to leave walls smooth and ready for decoration.

Installation and repair of plasterboard, ceiling repairs and preparation works. This includes filling, sanding and surface preparation to make sure everything beneath the paint or plaster is done properly.

Treatment of mould issues and repairs to damp-affected walls following treatment. We don’t just cover problems up – we fix the damage and give clear advice to help prevent it coming back.

Reliable decorating and plastering for landlords, estate agents, care homes and commercial properties. This includes end-of-tenancy redecoration, property refreshes, ongoing maintenance and minor repair works related to decorating and plastering.
If you manage multiple properties, you need a partner who turns up when promised, works cleanly and keeps tenants happy. Our team understands the pressures of maintaining housing stock. We offer:
Every home deserves to feel special. Whether it’s a full renovation or a single feature wall, we take the same care with preparation, protection and finish. From contemporary neutrals to bold statement colours, we’ll guide you through options and leave you with a space that reflects your style.
Landlords and property managers need work that’s tidy, reliable and done on schedule. We regularly carry out decorating and plastering for rental properties, managed portfolios and shared buildings, keeping spaces presentable and ready for use.
Work is planned to reduce downtime, carried out with care, and finished to a standard that makes properties easier to let, manage and maintain.
Matthew began his career in a traditional apprenticeship, went on to win a CITB SkillBuild award and holds an NVQ Level 3 plus a foundation degree in construction.
We offer fixed quotes wherever possible, so you know what you’re paying. If a day rate is more sensible, we’ll explain why – and keep you informed as work progresses.
We don’t like lingering on site any more than you do. Through careful planning and years of experience, we work efficiently without ever rushing the finish.
We’re fully insured for your peace of mind. We protect your floors and furniture, tidy up at the end of each day and treat your property as if it were our own.
Choosing the right decorator or plasterer means trusting the person doing the work and feeling confident the job will be done properly. Here’s what sets Ascend Building Renovations apart.
Based in Burnley, we happily travel throughout the North West – including Southport, Preston, Blackburn, Manchester and surrounding areas. If you’re unsure whether we cover your location, just ask.
