Building Repair & Maintenance Service
Keeping your property in good shape
Houses and buildings don’t stay perfect forever. Cracks appear, damp patches show up, plaster gets damaged, and small problems can quickly become big ones if they’re left too long. At AJS Plastering we carry out all kinds of repair and maintenance work from small patch jobs in a single room to ongoing upkeep for landlords and businesses.
We’ve been doing this kind of work across Oldham and Greater Manchester for over 30 years, and we’ve built a reputation for being quick to respond, tidy on site, and leaving a proper finish.
The sort of jobs we handle
- Fixing cracks in walls and ceilings.
- Repairing damaged plasterboards or blown plaster.
- Sorting out damp patches and water-damaged areas.
- External repairs like render patching, pointing or sealant work.
- General upkeep such as re-skimming, decorative finishes, and small carpentry.
- Guttering and downpipe fixes, using trusted partners where needed.
How we go about it
When we’re called out, we don’t just cover things over. We look for the cause of the problem, explain it in plain terms, and then repair it properly using the right materials for the job. Once the repair is done, we blend the finish so it doesn’t stand out and, if needed, give advice on how to stop the issue coming back whether that’s improving ventilation, sorting drainage, or just keeping an eye on a certain area.
