As
an organisation we are committed to providing quality housing
for all our tenants. Every year we spend approximately £3m on
improving homes.
United Welsh has a programme of planned maintenance to ensure
that all our properties are kept in good condition. The
maintenance work includes some of the following:
-
Cyclical decorating
-
Kitchen renewals
-
Heating replacement
- Window
& door renewals

maintenance programme for the next two years

The planned maintenance programme is continuous, however there
are specific targets that we are required to meet as a social
housing landlord.
Meeting
the Welsh Housing Quality Standard
The Welsh Assembly Government has set a minimum standard for the
condition of all housing association properties in Wales. These
standards cover the general condition of a property as well as
specific items such as kitchens and bathrooms, energy
efficiency, security and estate management. All housing
associations and local authorities must bring their properties
up to this standard by 2012. It is called the Welsh Housing
Quality Standard and it will ensure that everyone has a decent
home to live in. United Welsh is committed to ensuring that all
our properties meet this standard.
You can find out more about the Welsh Housing Quality Standard
on the Welsh Assembly Government website –
