Common Repairs Policy

We're reviewing how we manage repairs to buildings where we share ownership with other owners. This consultation is your chance to share your views. Your feedback helps shape decisions that affect your home and the services we provide.

Your views on the revised Common Repairs Policy

The revised Common Repairs Policy explains how we manage repairs and maintenance to buildings where we share responsibility with other owners. We hope that by reviewing the Common Repairs Policy we will:

• make clear what the Council and other flat owners are responsible for;
• give clear guidance on the process we follow for common repairs;
• encourage more owners to take part in common repairs so that buildings are maintained, safe, and secure and meet relevant standards;
• explain how owners are charged for common repairs;
• explain how owners pay for common repairs and what happens if payments are missed;
• follow legal requirements and best practice; and
• help create better places for owners and tenants to live.
