Repairs in your council home

Access for repairs

We may need to visit your home to inspect it or carry out repairs.

You are responsible for:

  • keeping your appointment
  • telling us if you cannot be at home
  • making sure we can get in safely

If we cannot get access, your repair may be delayed.

Appointments

We will agree a day and time that works best for you. Appointment slots are:

  • morning – 8am to 1pm
  • afternoon – 1pm to 4.30pm
  • school run – 10am to 2pm
  • all day – 8am to 4.30pm

Contact us if you need to change your appointment.

If we use a subcontractor, we will tell you the name of the company. They will contact you directly to arrange access.
