This is a graphic of various tools to highlight the importance of allowing access for essential work

The council carries out a range of works in order to comply with our landlord duties.

This includes annual gas servicing, fixed electrical testing and installing heat and smoke detection.

It is vitally important that tenants provide access to their homes to allow us to carry out these essential works. If we have been trying to contact you to arrange access to your home, please email us to arrange a suitable time for us to come back to carry out the required work. 

If you have any issues or concerns about allowing us into your home, we can work with you and provide any support that we can, to enable us to carry out these essential works in a way that suits you best. Please contact us using the email addresses below.

For fixed electrical testing and/or installation of heat and smoke detection email the electrical section, and for gas servicing email the gas section.
