Estate services


Estate services include cleaning, gardening, parking enforcement, graffiti removal and other services within the communal areas of our estates and buildings.

To cover the costs of estate services, we charge residents a variable service charge, whereby we calculate the shared cost of the services for each resident.

Estate inspections


Our housing services officers carry out regular inspections of our estates to ensure that service standards are being met.

If you wish to take part in an inspection on your estate, you can read more about when the next inspection is taking place.

Or you can find out more about how to get involved in the estate inspection process.

We also have more more information about the Special Minor Improvements Budget (SMIB).

Parking on estates


We operate parking control on many of our estates. This means that there may be restrictions on where people can park. Vehicles parked on the estate without proper authorisation will be subject to parking enforcement measures - this could mean that the vehicle will be removed.

If parking control operates on your estate, please make sure you have applied for a resident's parking permit. Where visitor's parking is available on your estate, you must apply for the appropriate vistor's parking permit.
