Grey Friar Court and White Friar Court Improvements

Why are we making these improvements?

Being a responsible landlord means staying aligned with changing standards and needs. The Government has introduced carbon emissions reduction targets for housing associations, which includes us. Our focus is to enhance the energy efficiency of our homes, making them not only more sustainable but also cost-effective for you.

Benefits of these improvements and changes

Our package of improvements has been designed to improve your home. Upon completion, you can expect homes that are not only cosier and more comfortable, but also energy efficient. These enhancements will not only keep you warm but also potentially lower your energy bills and reduce carbon emissions.

Understanding condensation, damp, and mould

At Salix Homes, we take the condition of our homes very seriously and we are committed to making sure you have a healthy home, free from damp, mould and condensation.

As part of our commitment to your well-being and to prevent condensation, damp, and mould, we are also taking the following steps as part of this planned project:

• Replacing kitchen fan: We will be replacing your kitchen fan to ensure efficient air extraction, which is essential for maintaining a mould-free environment.

• Internal door gaps: To facilitate proper airflow between rooms, we will ensure that there is a 1cm gap under each of your internal doors. If the gap is insufficient, we will shave off a small portion from the bottom to meet the recommended gap.
