Repairs to begin on city’s 'neglected' council homes

Repairs to begin on city’s 'neglected' council homes

Render peeling from walls of a home on the Eddleston Drive estate in Clifton

WORK to repair “neglected” council homes in a part of Nottingham will begin this month and continue into the new year, the city council says.

In January, residents on the Eddleston Drive estate in Clifton told the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS) their homes had been plagued with rotting window frames, peeling render, damp, and poor insulation for years.

Their concerns were raised as the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH), the independent body responsible for overseeing standards, found serious problems with Nottingham City Council’s housing stock after an inspection.

The Labour-run authority has now confirmed repair work to fix issues in Eddleston Drive - as well as similar problems in nearby Fairisle Close and Lerwick Close - will begin this month and continue throughout the new year.
