Routine maintenance on council homes
We have a rolling programme of improvement to all our buildings in order to ensure they are of a certain standard.
This standard is what the government calls Decent Homes and it expects all social housing to be of this standard. The definition of a decent home is one that is wind and weather tight, warm and has modern facilities. It must:
- be in a reasonable state of repair
- have reasonably modern facilities and services
- provide a reasonable degree of thermal comfort
- meet current statutory minimum standard housing requirements
- be free of disrepair
- structurally stable
- have a suitable toilet
