Providing Quality Housing
Introduction to the Maintenance Team
What is the Consortium Maintenance Team?
The Consortium Maintenance Team is a team that helps you to live successfully in your own home.
You have a landlord who owns your home and makes sure that is safe and well looked after.
There is a Management Agreement between the Consortium and your Landlord which asks the Consortium to do some of the things that have to be done to make sure that your house stays safe and well looked after.
The Consortium Maintenance Team does these jobs for you as tenants.
What does the Consortium Maintenance Team do for tenants?
The Team makes sure that your home and the things provided by your landlord are well looked after and safe to use.
The Team will make sure that the inside of your house is decorated up to a good standard; they will re-decorate your house every 5 years.
The team will help you to look after your garden by making sure that it is safe and helping to cut the grass and hedges if necessary.
Some tenants have also become part of the Team and are learning new skills by working alongside staff within tenant’s homes and in the Team’s workshop.
The Team is committed to helping tenants to stay as independent as they can and to enjoy their rights and responsibilities as tenants. The Team want tenants to take as much control as possible in requesting repairs and decoration with support of their support staff.
