Delivering First-Class Facilities Services for Downtown Asset Management at Downtown Apartments
At MGFS, we’re proud to work with clients who share our values of quality, care, and long-term partnership. One of those valued clients is Downtown Asset Management, who manage the impressive Downtown Apartments development—a landmark residential scheme that redefines modern living in Manchester.
Downtown isn’t just an apartment complex—it’s a community. With hundreds of residents, high-end communal spaces, gyms, saunas, landscaped areas, and 24/7 concierge facilities, the expectation for quality and seamless operation is high. And that’s exactly where MGFS comes in.
We provide comprehensive Facilities Management (FM) across the Downtown development, ensuring every aspect of the building’s maintenance, safety, and presentation is delivered to the highest possible standard.

Our Full-Scope Facilities Services
At Downtown, MGFS manages both Reactive and Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) services—ensuring the building remains compliant, safe, and efficient around the clock.
Reactive Maintenance: Our engineers respond rapidly to any issues that arise, whether that’s an electrical fault, a drainage concern, or a broken door mechanism. With our 24/7 helpdesk, issues are logged, prioritised, and resolved quickly—minimising disruption for residents and management teams alike.
Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM): We deliver a structured programme of scheduled inspections, testing, and servicing, aligned to SFG20 standards and statutory compliance requirements. This covers everything from fire alarm and emergency lighting testing to water hygiene checks, lift servicing and more—helping Downtown avoid costly breakdowns and maintain operational excellence.
Statutory Testing & Inspections: Safety and compliance are central to what we do. We carry out ongoing testing of life safety systems, electrical installations, fire doors, and more, ensuring Downtown Apartments remains compliant with all UK regulations and insurer requirements.
Cleaning & Presentation: A key part of residential FM is the day-to-day environment. Our cleaning team ensures all communal areas, entrances, lifts, and facilities are kept spotless and welcoming for residents and visitors and monthly audit checks take place to upkeep standards at all times.
Grounds Maintenance: We also maintain the landscaped sedum roofs and outdoor areas that give Downtown its distinctive appeal, ensuring they’re clean, safe, and beautifully presented all year round.
Collaboration, Communication & Care
What makes our partnership with Downtown Asset Management work so well is shared vision and clear communication. The Downtown development is a live, busy environment where residents, contractors, and management teams all operate side by side. Our FM approach is built around being proactive, adaptable, and discreet—delivering essential services with minimal disruption.
Our dedicated on-site team, supported by our Altrincham-based management and helpdesk, means Downtown can rely on MGFS to handle every aspect of facilities management—leaving their in-house team free to focus on residents and operational strategy.
From planned maintenance schedules to reactive callouts and cleaning, we’ve created a seamless, self-delivered service that keeps the Downtown development running like clockwork.
Setting the Standard for Residential FM
Downtown Asset Management sets the bar for luxury residential living, and MGFS is proud to help uphold that standard through our integrated FM model. Every inspection, repair, and service visit is carried out with care, compliance, and precision—because we know that maintaining a development of this calibre takes more than just ticking boxes. It takes ownership, consistency, and passion.
