We are committed to<br />
investing in good quality<br />
homes. Every year we<br />
carry out a planned<br />
maintenance programme.<br />
This represents a<br />
significant percentage of<br />
the money we spend.<br />
THE SELECTION<br />
We pick the replacements<br />
based on cost, energy<br />
efficiency and quality.<br />
However, if you’re property<br />
is due any planned works,<br />
you can choose in the<br />
following areas:<br />
BATHROOMS<br />
You will be able to pick from<br />
a range of tiles, floorings<br />
and a choice of fixtures<br />
and fittings.<br />
KITCHENS<br />
Oakwood Kitchens supply<br />
our great kitchens, built<br />
from materials sourced from<br />
sustainable forestry. You’ll<br />
be able to pick from a broad<br />
range of handles, worktops<br />
and units.<br />
WINDOWS<br />
Where practical, we install<br />
white uPVC windows which<br />
are picked for their style and<br />
excellence. They are made<br />
from 80% recycled materials.<br />
BOILERS<br />
We currently install Ideal<br />
Logic combi boilers which<br />
give an efficient output of<br />
heating and hot water.<br />
They are convenient in size<br />
and cost effective to run.<br />
This year the work includes the following improvements:<br />
