Decant Policy (Repairs and Maintenance) for Council Housing

Starts: 18 March 2025

Ends: 7 April 2025

Description

As a landlord the Council has a duty to undertake repairs to its tenants' homes. Occasionally works cannot be carried out with the tenant present due to the extent of the work required or due to health and safety issues.

This draft policy sets out how we will support tenants who are required to move out of their home in order to undertake planned and essential repairs or improvements.

We welcome your views on the draft policy.
