When can I expect routine maintenance on my council home?

 

    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 WC etc

An up-to-date programme of works programme of works will be made available soon.
