At Salix Homes, we take building safety seriously

Our buildings meet the highest safety standards, and include a range of safety systems and components to protect our customers and colleagues.

We’ve been at the forefront of building safety - raising safety standards within our own properties, advising government bodies on future recommendations and piloting and implementing the reforms in the new Building Safety Act.

Watch our video, and read our 'Story So Far' which explains our journey.
