Ashley & McDonough

Ashley & McDonough, operating as The A&M Group, is a provider of compliance services with a focus on the UK's social housing and public sectors. The company was founded in 2005 by Ashley and Tony McDonough. It offers a range of services designed to help landlords meet their statutory and regulatory obligations, covering areas such as gas, electrical, fire, and water safety.

The firm's business model is centered on delivering outsourced compliance solutions, acting as a contractor for councils, housing associations, and other public bodies. This includes carrying out safety inspections, servicing, and maintenance work. For instance, the company manages gas servicing and breakdown for thousands of homes on behalf of its clients. The company has secured multi-million pound contracts, such as a £2.4 million deal with Karbon Homes for gas servicing and a significant contract with Your Housing Group to manage gas and electrical services for over 12,000 properties. This B2B model generates revenue through long-term service agreements and project-based work.

Headquartered in a 24,000 sq ft facility in St Helens, the company has expanded its operations across the UK, with additional offices in Yorkshire and the North East to support its growing client base. The leadership team includes directors like Liam Warren, who brings experience from within the sector.
