Repairs and maintenance

Our responsive repairs service is provided by Pyramid Plus in partnership with our new contractor Mears UK. We’re committed to delivering a good quality repair service as quickly as we can.


How to report a repair

This year, we’ve partnered with Mears UK to deliver a faster and better-quality repairs service. This means we’re making a number of changes, including how we diagnose and categorise your repair when you first get in touch with us. Once you’ve checked if the repair is our responsibility, you can:

  • Call us on 0800 432 0077 (this is the recommended way to contact us if your repair is urgent)

Home repairs and improvements

If you’re a social housing customer, we’re responsible for everything inside your house that we installed, such as central heating, pipes, plasterwork and window catches.

If you are a homeowner, key worker, student, retirement living or rent privately from us then you are responsible for maintaining the inside of your home. This includes internal electrical wiring and plumbing.

Communal repairs

We carry out repairs to areas of your building and estate that you share with other customers.

Our responsibilities include:

  • Entry systems, lifts and lighting
  • Plumbing and drainage outside your home
  • Fire doors, foyer doors, security gates, window frames, floors and footpaths
  • Repairs to communal heating and hot water systems.

Planned works

If you are a social housing customer, we also have a planned and major works programme for your home. This includes things like replacing your kitchen, bathroom or boiler. We plan this work several years ahead and we'll write and let you know when it's scheduled to happen, which is usually every 5 to 10 years. To find out when planned works are due for your building you can get in touch with us.


How quickly will you fix my repair?

We’re introducing new faster timescales for completing your repairs and will improve how we communicate with you. But it may take a little longer than normal for us to complete your repair during this transition period. Please be patient with us while we make it all happen. Read our repair and maintenance help pages for more information on our new timescales for fixing repairs.
