Facilities management in Durham.
Durham is a university and cathedral city with civic and professional offices. Meridian manages the services those premises depend on, from contract cleaning and grounds to planned maintenance, reactive repairs and compliance, under one contract with one point of accountability.
Where we work in Durham.
We cover commercial premises across DH1, including Belmont Business Park, Aykley Heads and the city centre. Single sites and multi-site portfolios are both handled the same way: one specification, one schedule, one helpdesk.
Durham is covered as part of our wider northern operating area. Contracts are mobilised with a team assigned to the site and managed from Leeds, so you get people on the ground and one central point of accountability.
Nearby: Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland and Darlington.
Services available in Durham.
Services can be taken individually or bundled into one integrated contract. Most Durham enquiries start with cleaning or maintenance and add the rest once the first schedule is running.
Premises we are built for.
One provider, not five.
Changing provider is routine and often involves TUPE, where staff transfer with the contract. We manage that process properly and keep service running through the changeover, so there is no gap in cleaning, maintenance or compliance cover.
Most problems in facilities management start with a vague specification. We write down what gets done, how often and to what standard before the contract begins, so there is a document to hold us to rather than an assumption to argue about.
Asked by Durham enquiries.

Yes. We work across DH1, taking in Belmont Business Park, Aykley Heads and the city centre. Durham is covered as part of our wider northern operating area. Contracts are mobilised with a team assigned to the site and managed from Leeds, so you get people on the ground and one central point of accountability.
Are your teams local to Durham? +
Yes. We mobilise contracts in Durham with a team assigned to the site, vetted, trained and uniformed, working to a specification agreed before we start and supported by a Leeds based management team and one helpdesk.
Can we start with one service and add more later? +
Yes. Most contracts start with cleaning or maintenance, then add grounds, waste, security or compliance once the first schedule is settled and audited.
