Under the terms of our letter of appointment we offer to redecorate each residents property every 5 years through a planned works programme funded from our CMF. The resident can opt not to have any works or just one or two rooms and then we revisit 5 years later. We have a standard pallet of colours and if the resident wishes to have anything different or paper hanging they can purchase these items and the decorating firm carry out as part of the redecorating.
the firm we use are well known to us, based locally and work with the residents to minimise all disruption whilst they work round the property. we are lucky in our two almshouses have guest rooms and so if we need to relocate someone we can put them in these rooms whilst any redecoration takes place. Vacant properties are often redecorated throughtout also.
hope this helps Chris
