They have the repairs contracts. Major Works are let on a contract by contract basis and use a variety of companies. None of the ones I know of were done by Wates. <br /><br />Pete is spot on. I am also deeply worried about the standard of HA built housing, having seen forst hand how badly some is done.Alison Hopkinsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-58506544300568539712017-06-16T20:41:31.418+01:002017-06-16T20:41:31.418+01:00Brent and BHP are saying they are 100% compliant a...Brent and BHP are saying they are 100% compliant and fire checks have been carried out.

Further, one of the many things brought to light by the Grenfell tragedy is that Building Standards have been relaxed and not monitored. Regeneration in South Kilburn has produced many building faults in newly built properties. What is Brent going to do to ensure standards are raised and properly monitored? Grenfell residents raised concerns for years and were ignored. Brent ignores the concerns of residents around its regeneration.
