What does it cost in the North East?
Our guide range for a minor void in the North East is £1,350–£3,150 per void. That is the UK range of £1,500–£3,500 (our estimate) adjusted by a regional cost factor of 0.90 (VOA Rating Cost Guide 2026: 0.89–0.93); 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?
Our handover pack is designed for your lettings team: photos room by room, certificates from the engineers who did the work and a short list of anything we were not asked to do.
