Planned Works
Housing Improvements 2009/2010
An important programme of home improvements is now well underway in areas across the borough. Aimed at helping to meet the government’s ‘Decent Homes Standard’ the programme is focused on kitchens, doors, windows and outside areas.
Kitchens
Over 400 kitchens are planned to be replaced this year. Work involves completely removing all existing fixtures and fittings and replacing them with a new fitted kitchen flooring and redecorating the kitchen throughout.
External Doors
Over 1000 homes will benefit from new front and/or back door replacements by April 2010.
Disabled Adaptations
Approximately 50 properties will benefit from major adaptations (full wet rooms) ranging from over bath showers to full extensions.
Boiler Replacements
Approximately 600 boiler replacements are planned for this year.
Electrical Testing
We are in the last year of our 5 year electrical testing programme.
Other smaller work programmes
Include internal redecoration, structural repairs, rewires and door entry systems.
