Which rules apply in Northern Ireland?
Awaab's Law applies in England only, and we found no Northern Ireland equivalent when we checked in October 2026. Landlords' repair obligations and the Northern Ireland Decent Homes Standard still apply.
What does it cost in Northern Ireland?
Our guide range for an average responsive repair in Northern Ireland is £135–£225 per job. That is the UK range of £150–£250 (derived from published totals) adjusted by a regional cost factor of 0.90 (our own estimate); figures are before VAT where the source states it. Responsive repairs are usually priced against your schedule of rates or per job.
How do we deliver it?
We plan routes so that jobs in the same area are grouped where your priorities allow it, which keeps travel time down and attendance up. No-access visits are recorded with the time and the steps taken to contact the tenant.
Common questions
Which council areas in Northern Ireland do you cover for responsive repairs?
All 11: Antrim and Newtownabbey, Ards and North Down, Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon, Belfast, Causeway Coast and Glens, Derry City and Strabane, Fermanagh and Omagh, Lisburn and Castlereagh, Mid Ulster, Mid and East Antrim, Newry, Mourne and Down.
Do you price with the NHF Schedule of Rates?
We can quote against your schedule of rates (including NHF-based schedules) or give a fixed price per job. We tell you up front which items we will price separately.
Can you take overflow work rather than a whole contract?
Yes. You can use us for overflow, a specific trade, a backlog or a geographic patch. We agree a schedule of rates or price each job, whichever suits your procurement route.
