Investing in your home

As written in our Corporate Plan, we want our homes to be in good repair, safe and secure in clean, well-maintained neighbourhoods that are thriving with community spirit. We know this is what matters to you.

To do this, we must invest in our existing homes, here are some examples of how in the last financial year we’ve done so.

338 kitchens and 23 bathrooms were installed where they were beyond economical repair or at the end of their lifespan. Ensuring the properties have modern facilities for our customers.

188 properties received a new external door, improving the security of the properties for our tenants.

149 properties received new external fire rated doors, improving the security and helping tenants stay safe in the event of a fire.

100 properties received new roofs included loft insulation top ups where necessary, keeping the properties watertight and well insulated which will assist tenants with their heating demand and improving the energy efficiency of their home.

11 wet rooms were replaced, ensuring that properties remained accessible and usable for the current tenants.

10 properties received off street parking were previously omitted from major projects, improving the accessibility and reducing the number of parked vehicles on our estates.

Electrical upgrades were completed to Market Hill and Trent View which ensured that the buildings were as safe as possible in the event of a fire.

11 properties which had poor performing and drafty windows had them replaced in full. Helping the properties retain their heat.

2,470 properties had a condition survey completed, to better understand the condition of tenant’s homes to plan future programmes of work.

We have lots of plans for this financial year and beyond, with consultation planned in too. To stay up to date on all of the latest, keep an eye on our website.
