Ib Asferg A/S

What Ib Asferg A/S does

Ib Asferg A/S is a family-owned Danish construction contractor founded in 1974 by Ib Asferg and now run by the second generation under Bjørn Asferg. The company operates from Hvidovre in the Copenhagen metropolitan area, serving the Hovedstaden and Sjælland regions. It employs approximately 50 staff and is a member of Snedkerlauget (the Danish Carpenter Guild) and the Byg Garanti warranty scheme, which provide guild affiliation and consumer protection backstop on contracted work.

The company operates three integrated lines: insurance damage repair, service and maintenance, and construction projects. Disclosed contract values span from 3.25M DKK (Ingrid Jespersen Gymnastikforening) to 54.5M DKK (Alm. Brand Forsikring for E/F Nygade 2-4), with intermediate scopes at 7.7M DKK (AB Willemoesgade roof) and 4.9M DKK (Blågårdsgade attic conversion). Work is delivered across carpentry, masonry, and painting trades, supported by an in-house workshop that allows the company to take bundled scopes without subcontracting.

The business model is project-based contracting against Danish building-cooperative, insurance, and private clients. Pricing is per-project, with warranty coverage under Byg Garanti. The revenue base is not publicly disclosed; the firm has no funding history, no subsidiaries, and no M&A activity on record. A new combined office and workshop completed in summer 2023, including rooftop solar panels, is the most significant recent capital deployment and signals reinvestment in in-house production capacity rather than expansion outside the existing geography.

It delivers carpentry/joinery, masonry, and painting services across three business lines: insurance damage repair, recurring service and maintenance, and larger construction/renovation projects.

Product overview

Ib Asferg A/S is a family-owned Danish construction company offering a unified portfolio of integrated handcraft services.

These trade services are organized into three main business lines: (1) Forsikringsskader (insurance damage repair), handling assessment and full restoration for insurance companies; (2) Service og vedligeholdelse (maintenance), providing rapid response operational upkeep; and (3) Projekt (projects), covering renovation, conversion, and new construction work. The company operates with in-house production across all trades, supplemented by trusted subcontractors, enabling them to deliver comprehensive solutions from initial consultation through project completion.

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• ISS A/S: Global facility services provider with a strong Danish presence in property maintenance, repair, and integrated services. Adjacent competition for ongoing service and maintenance contracts with property owners and housing associations.
• MT Højgaard: One of Denmark's largest general contractors, operating across construction, civil engineering, and renovation. Overlaps with Ib Asferg on housing and renovation projects but operates at materially larger scale and broader geographic scope.
• Per Aarsleff Holding: Large Danish construction and infrastructure group with significant operations in building renovation and ground engineering. Competes for some of the same housing-association and institutional tenders at a larger scale.
• Kemp & Lauritzen: Danish technical services and building contractor with operations across electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. Adjacent in the property-services value chain, serving some of the same property managers and institutional clients.
• NCC Denmark: Nordic construction group with a Danish building renovation arm focused on housing and commercial refurbishment. Overlaps in renovation tenders and property-maintenance work, but operates at much larger scale and broader geography.

Direct peers

• HusCompagniet: Danish homebuilder and renovation contractor with project execution across the Copenhagen area. Comparable in its focus on residential construction, renovation, and developer-style project delivery, though larger in scale.
• M.J. Eriksson: Danish construction firm delivering residential, commercial, and renovation projects across Zealand. Similar profile in terms of regional focus, craft-based delivery, and reliance on housing-association and developer clients.
• Enemærke & Petersen: Mid-sized Danish construction and renovation contractor operating in the Copenhagen/Zealand region with a similar multi-trade service model. Comparable in scale, customer base (housing associations, developers, institutional clients), and integrated build approach.

Regional players

• Davidsen: Regional Danish construction, building materials, and project execution company primarily serving western Denmark and Jutland. Comparable in segment but geographically distinct from Ib Asferg's Copenhagen/Zealand footprint.

Others

• Bygma: Danish building materials distributor and pro-dealer network. Ecosystem participant rather than direct competitor, but a key supplier for craftsmen like Ib Asferg and a potential co-marketing partner for developer and E/F projects.
