Social Housing Refurbishments

We provide high quality refurbishment solutions for local authorities across the UK. Our team of experts have over 20 years experience in the redesign and refurbishment of all domestic properties. Well maintained properties are vital for public housing landlords and it is a legal requirement that properties are kept to a certain standard. Refurbishment with us ensures that local authorities are providing their tenants with high quality, modern homes, and our turnkey approach to refurbishment means that all aspects of the project from design to installation are covered. Properties in need of refurbishment often suffer from ageing fixtures, flooring and wiring. As well as this, it is important for the health and safety of tenants that their home is well-maintained, and that key structural areas are in the best condition. Public housing refurbishment may also include the installation of accessibility features including wheelchair ramps, stairlifts, and widened walkways.
