Behind every growing business is a team willing to challenge the status quo.

The strongest organisations are constantly looking for ways to improve processes, strengthen operations and create new opportunities.

At Ascend Group Holdings, we believe sustainable growth comes from clear strategy, strong leadership and a commitment to continuous improvement.

The question is not where your business is today.

The question is where it could be tomorrow.

The most successful businesses are not built overnight. They are built through clear vision, consistent action, and the right people working together.

From a laptop and a phone at a kitchen table in 2018 to multiple growing businesses across the UK.

DIMA Group was Andrew Gilmour’s first business. Built from the ground up with determination, long hours and a vision to create something different within the security and staffing industry. What started as a small security company quickly evolved into a multi service business supporting venues, events and businesses across Scotland.

The journey has never been easy. Opening the first office just weeks before Covid hit could have stopped everything before it truly began. Instead, it became part of the story that shaped the business into what it is today.

Fast forward to now and that same ambition has led to the creation of Ascend Group Holdings focused on innovation, investment and acquiring businesses with real potential.

The first acquisition came through Elite Decorating, helping grow and modernise an already talented business while building stronger foundations for the future.

Most recently, Ascend proudly acquired First-Rate Maintenance, marking another major step forward in creating a group of businesses built around quality service, strong teams and long term growth.

This is only the beginning. 🚀

Big things are happening in Newcastle.

We are proud to announce that Ascend Group Holdings has officially acquired First-Rate Maintenance, bringing together years of industry experience, trusted relationships and a shared vision for the future of facilities maintenance across the North East and beyond.

Led by Andrew Dunn and Andrew Gilmour, this next chapter focuses on building a modern, reliable and responsive maintenance business that delivers for clients across commercial, retail and public sector environments.

From reactive maintenance and planned works through to specialist support services, First Rate Maintenance has already built a strong reputation for quality workmanship, professionalism and completing the job properly.

Andrew Gilmour said:
“ First-Rate Maintenance has built a fantastic reputation over the years and we see huge potential in what comes next. By combining operational experience with fresh investment and a clear vision for growth, we are creating a business that is built for the future while keeping the same reliable service clients know and trust.

One of the key opportunities we saw through this partnership was the ability to expand the services available to both First-Rate Maintenance and DIMA Group clients. Bringing facilities maintenance together with security and staffing support allows us to offer a more complete solution under one group.”

Andrew Dunn said:
“This marks an exciting new chapter for First-Rate Maintenance Building on the strong foundations already in place, we fully support Andrew Gilmour’s vision. Most importantly, we remain firmly committed to delivering a consistent, high-quality service for all of our clients, ensuring the same reliability and standards they have come to expect as we continue to grow.”
