Council housing - services and communal repairs

If you have bought your flat it is important to bear in mind that you are responsible for managing and maintaining the building with your neighbours.

This guide provides more information on owners responsibilities. Its three aims are:-

  • to provide you with advice on how to find out what exactly your repair and maintenance responsibilities are;  
  • to inform you about the role that property managers can play in organising the necessary repair and maintenance work to your building;  
  • to provide basic advice on how to resolve particular repair and maintenance problems when they arise. 
We also have a Owner Management Service who can be contacted for more information on 0845 277 7000
