New Service Standard for Repairs

Our new service standards for repairs

A shared vision and key aims, and new service standards have been created and agreed with Corserv Facilities (who provide most of our repairs). This is to make sure we are delivering the services you have told us you want and we need to ensure our homes are of a good quality.

You said...

• You want to know when your repair is scheduled as soon as possible, ideally when you report it
• You would like most repairs completed in one visit
• When repairs need more than one visit you want to be informed of when the follow up visit is scheduled
• You need more flexibility with appointments because of your work, caring responsibilities or medical needs.
