The Facilities Hub
Blackwell & Denton FM Ltd look after buildings the way we have looked after appliances since 1973 — with our own engineers, our own spares counter and one phone number. The Facilities Hub is where landlords, letting agents, housing providers and businesses in York get planned maintenance, reactive call-outs, safety certificates and cleaning from a single team.
Every service a building needs, from one team
Instead of juggling separate contractors, our customers run everything through us. Each service below has its own page with full detail — follow the links to read more.
Planned maintenance contracts
Scheduled servicing and inspection for boilers, electrics, appliances and building fabric — priced per building, with visit schedules agreed up front. See the planned maintenance page.
Reactive maintenance
When something fails, one call covers electrical, gas, appliance and fabric faults, with make-safe attendance and written reports. See the reactive maintenance page.
NICEIC electrical work
Consumer units, rewires, EICR testing, lighting and small power, all certificated under our NICEIC Approved registration. See the electrical services page.
Gas Safe heating
Boiler breakdowns, servicing and landlord gas safety checks by Gas Safe registered engineers, often alongside appliance work in the same visit.
Landlord safety certificates
Gas safety records, EICRs, PAT testing and smoke and CO alarm checks bundled into a single annual visit where possible. See the certificates page.
Specialist & end of tenancy cleaning
Deep cleans, void property turnarounds, commercial kitchens and builders cleans, plus drug and hoarding clearances with full risk assessments. See the cleaning pages.
Own spares counter
Our Clifton Moor trade counter stocks the common parts, so planned and reactive jobs finish on the visit far more often than firms ordering everything in.
One report, every visit
What was found, what was done, what is outstanding and what it will cost — in writing with photographs, ready for your file, your insurer or your auditor.
Agreed response times
Contract customers hold defined response targets by priority, so a genuine emergency and a dripping tap are not treated — or priced — the same way.
Landlords, agents & housing
For landlords and managing agents around York, the hub means one number for the whole property — the boiler, the wiring, the white goods and the clean between tenancies.
- Single point of contact for every trade
- Direct contact with tenants to arrange access
- Annual safety certificates bundled into one visit
- Void turnarounds: repairs, clearance and clean together
- Photographic reports for your records
- Repairs priced clearly before extra work proceeds
Businesses & commercial sites
For shops, offices, workshops and care settings, downtime is the real cost. We prioritise what stops you trading and schedule planned work around your opening hours.
- Priority response for trading-critical failures
- Planned servicing outside opening hours where agreed
- Electrical, gas, refrigeration and appliances in one call
- Multi-site cover under a single agreement
- Reports suitable for insurers and auditors
- Repeat failures flagged with repair-versus-replace costs
How working with the hub runs
Tell us about your property
Call 01904 659066 or send a message over WhatsApp. Tell us what the building is, what it contains and what is going wrong or needs maintaining.
We scope what you need
A single contract, a one-off repair, certificates due, or a mix. We will tell you honestly which is worth having and which is not.
Clear price, clear schedule
Work priced and scheduled before anyone attends — per job or per contract, with response targets agreed where they matter.
Our own engineers attend
No subcontractor lottery. The engineer who attends knows the building if we maintain it, and carries van stock from our own counter.
Certificated where required
Electrical and gas work come with the correct NICEIC and Gas Safe paperwork as standard, filed with your report.
Reported in writing
Every attendance closes with a written report and photographs, so you always know what was done and what is next.
What every facilities customer gets
We will tell you what you do not need
Not every building needs a full maintenance contract, and not every fault needs an emergency call-out. If your property only needs an annual certificate and a number to call when something breaks, we will say so and set it up that way — rather than selling you cover you will never use.

Each part of the hub has its own page with full detail on what is included and how a job runs.
