How do we deliver it?

A resident liaison officer visits before the survey, explains the programme and stays in touch until handover. Most complaints on kitchen programmes come from poor communication, not poor workmanship.

Which rules apply in South Gloucestershire?

Social homes in England must meet the Decent Homes Standard, enforced through the Regulator of Social Housing's Safety and Quality Standard. A reformed standard, confirmed in January 2026, must be met by 2035 at the latest.
