The final phase of Decent Homes work gets
underway in April 2013 and will be rolled out across Doncaster over
the next two years. It will include more than £40 million of work
to transform over 8,000 of our properties.
The work will include improving kitchens and
bathrooms, rewiring, roof replacement and pointing brickwork,
however not all properties will receive these upgrades. Our
surveyors are currently visiting properties to decide which homes
need works.
Because we have a limited amount of funding
for the work it is important to use it in a way which will bring
the most benefit to our tenants.
We have appointed Henry Boot Construction and
Keepmoat to carry out the upgrades, along with our own in-house
teams. These companies were chosen partly because they will employ
people from the Doncaster area, create new apprenticeships, and
work with our local schools to show young people what they need to
do to get a job in the construction industry.
