FHDC EXTERNAL WORKS UPDATE

We carry out a wide and varied selection of works for local authority clients here at AW Construction right across the Southeast. Having a dedicated team to carry out these works means that our clients have the confidence these works are not only carried out to the specifications required but also the safety and respect afforded to their tenants goes unmatched as well.

Yet again, we would like to thank our teams who complete these works across East Kent for several clients, the feedback we receive from tenants shows that our operatives not only take pride in their work but also respect the individuals who live within the properties. The testimonials speak for themselves:

• Totally Satisfied – a lovely team
• Totally Satisfied – all those who worked on this property were very polite and very considerate
• Totally Satisfied – I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Harry, Dale and Craig who worked through some rotten weather, before and after Christmas, doing the pointing on our house in. They did an excellent job and the house looks transformed as well as now being safe. They did a great job clearing and cleaning up too. We’ve had many people work on our council house over the past twenty years but none as friendly and as informative so full credit to them.

Our external works packages for both FHDC and DDC have been progressing well, despite the winter weather causing delays in completing certain aspects of the works. The determination of our operatives has seen several large projects completed recently.

Working with our clients is paramount in building these relationships and as part of our commitment to our contractual agreements and social commitments with these we recently carried out some works to a property within the council’s portfolio to assist a resident that was having difficulties in maintaining his property due to ill health.

The property had become covered in ivy and was causing a certain amount of damp penetration and difficulties in closing windows and doors leaving them vulnerable in their home. We quickly surveyed the property and at no cost to the client or tenant expediated the works necessary to remove the ivy, this included the erection of scaffold, removal of ivy, and a quick programme of full repointing, cleaning all gutters, windows and doors within a two week works programme.

Having completed the works the property now looks so much better not only for the tenant but also for their neighbours and the surrounding area.
