Upgrading our homes
Our capital projects team manage improvements to our housing stock as part of our major investment programme.
We aim to provide you with accurate and up to date information about our investment plans and the improvements you can expect to see across our neighbourhoods in the coming year.

Our capital investment works have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic over the past year and some projects had to be put on hold. During this year, we have programmed a significant investment plan in our existing homes and will be undertaking the following works:
Description of investment | Number of homes |
Replacement windows | 60 |
Flat entrance doors | 88 |
Replacement kitchens | 100 |
Replacement bathrooms | 15 |
Boiler replacements | 275 |
Electrical rewiring | 50 |
Alterations to common heating | 14 |
Number of closes | |
Stair lighting replacements | 35 |
Replacement Common Windows | 18 |
Replacement Common Ceiling Hatches | 10 |
We will also be undertaking a programme of surveys and repairs to stonework in our pre—1919 tenement stock and developing proposals for energy improvements in our older properties.
We will be in touch directly with tenants who are included in the investment plan for this year.
We plan to continue this significant level of investment in our homes in the coming years, with over £14 million spend planned over the next 5 years:
