Certus Construction Services were appointed to carry out refurbishments to North Yorkshire Council housing stock, through the Efficiency North Installers Framework.
We supported NYC carrying out significant works while properties were empty as part of much. Compared to other landlords, the NYC stock is relatively old, and in some localities historically there has been lower levels of investment than elsewhere.
Strategically, investing in significant improvements whilst properties are void allows for a better tenant experience, helping to reduce complaints and avoid expensive decants.
The 3-year contract saw Certus Construction Services carry out repairs to over 250 empty properties across the Selby District.
