How do we deliver it?

We start by checking the programme data against what our surveyors find, because ordering components for the wrong homes is the most expensive mistake in planned works.

Which rules apply in Blackpool?

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.
