Different elements of work will be required in different homes in order to comply with the Decent Homes standard.

Some homes scheduled for work under the target Decent Homes programme may have already received response repair work or other improvement work since our stock condition survey was carried out. All of the work targeted to be carried out in the programme is therefore subject to further survey.

This means that when we come to resurvey your home, in the year works are scheduled to be undertaken in your neighbourhood, some elements of your home may have been brought up to the Decent Homes standard already. For example, your home may have received a replacement kitchen or very significant repairs, within the last 5 years.

Your home may not therefore require the full extent of work we have included in our target programme, to meet the Decent Homes standard. This will be discussed with you when your home is resurveyed.
