Link hails successful completion of ambitious kitchen and bathroom installation programme
Link Property successfully installed 243 kitchens and 234 bathrooms during 2017/2018.
Link Group Ltd is celebrating following a successful year of kitchen and bathroom installations across its central belt housing stock by its in-house repairs and maintenance service, Link Property.
Link Property successfully installed 243 kitchens and 234 bathrooms during 2017/2018, receiving positive feedback and surpassing internal performance targets.
The installations were made possible through a special partnership with Procurement for Housing Scotland (PfH Scotland) to source suppliers of kitchen and bathroom products who would meet Link’s stringent technical and quality specifications, while also delivering excellent value for money.
Successful completion of the programme comes as social landlords across Scotland continue efforts to bring social sector properties up to the Scottish Housing Quality Standard. The Standard sets a range of minimum criteria properties must meet in order to be compliant. These include a specific requirement that kitchens and bathrooms are in good condition.
Commenting on the successful completion of the programme, Colin Culross, Director of Development and Asset Management, Link Group Ltd, said:
“We’re delighted with the success of our kitchen and bathroom installation programme since bringing these works in house. Link Property reported a satisfaction rate of 98.84% last year, and we aim to continue to improve this as we move forward.
“Our partnership with PfH Scotland enabled us to deliver the high standard of service our tenants have come to expect while remaining within our budgets.”
