Decent homes

Making sure existing housing stock meets the baseline for quality, safety and warmth.

Services list

Connolly helps social landlords meet the Decent Homes Standard for the buildings they look after, from addressing structural risks to undertaking planned or cyclical repairs and maintenance. We also upgrade kitchen and bathroom facilities, heating and boilers, windows and roofs and keep homes free of damp and mould.

As the majority of these homes are occupied, we also put a lot of emphasis on how we communicate with residents, listening to their concerns and creating tailored plans to minimise disruption whilst works are carried out. And we know we’re on to something with our approach, with customer satisfaction scores regularly above 95%.

Maintaining a strong supply chain also means that we can offer best value, demonstrate impact in local communities and trust that specialist services such as kitchen manufacturers or asbestos removers share the same commitment to excellence as Connolly.

I love it when customers shout me in for a brew, because finally they’ve got a kitchen they feel proud to show off.
