All teams work closely together to provide a uniform and consistent service for all our customers and stakeholders.
The Service is responsible for an annual revenue maintenance budget of c£27m and an annual capital improvement programme in excess of c£55m, both of which aim to actively keep properties in good repair and reduce disrepair, fire safety risks, repairs and disruption for our customers, whilst ensuring ongoing compliance with all relevant building, fire, gas and landlord regulations and associated legislation.
