Contractor Novus has
been appointed to deliver planned maintenance works across Croydon as part of a
contract worth £1 million.
The project will see
Novus carry out kitchen and bathroom maintenance and replacements to CCHA’s
properties. It will also perform windows and door replacements and internal and
external redecoration works.
CCHA owns and manages
around 1,400 homes in Croydon, Bromley, Merton and Sutton. Novus will work
alongside Gilmartins to provide planned and reactive maintenance services as
part of the project.
Tony Ronayne,
operations manager at Novus, said: “This is the first time we’ve worked
alongside CCHA and we’re looking forward to building a good working
relationship going forward.
“Despite being in one
of the most expensive places to live in the country, we’re committed to
ensuring high-quality work in affordable housing is carried out across all of
the provider’s properties.
“As part of the scheme
we’ll be carrying out planned maintenance works to care homes, which requires
us to liaise with tenants to ensure minimal disruption to them. Our experience
with these types of projects ensures we’re able to do that for CCHA and its
tenants.”
Craig Humphrey,
property services manager at CCHA, said: “Ensuring our residents get the very
best maintenance services available within a timely manner is vital to us.
Novus’s work helps us achieve that. We’re looking forward to working alongside
the business over the coming months and building on our relationship.”
