Which rules apply in Northern Ireland?

In Northern Ireland, the Housing Executive and registered housing associations work to the Northern Ireland Decent Homes Standard, which the Department for Communities consulted on revising in 2025–26.

What does it cost in Northern Ireland?

Our guide range for refurbishing an acquired or temporary accommodation home in Northern Ireland is £7,200–£22,500 per home. That is the UK range of £8,000–£25,000 (our estimate) adjusted by a regional cost factor of 0.90 (our own estimate); figures are before VAT where the source states it. Every job is priced after survey; specification, access and the condition of the homes will move the figure.

How do we deliver it?

An acquired home is an unknown quantity until it is opened up, so our first survey is thorough and our scope lists what we could and could not see.
