Tenant Satisfaction Measures Action Plan
Following the results of our 2024-25 TSM survey and other tenant feedback we are working on improvements around:
- Repairs
- Complaints
- Communal Areas
- Handling of ASB
- Listening to tenant views and acting on them
What we will do
Repairs
- Continue to monitor our repairs performance and think about bringing in extra support for works if needed.
- Expand use of text messages to tell tenants about appointments and how to cancel/reschedule them if necessary
- Provide more ways for tenants to report a repair. E.g. online
- Increase use of tablets/mobile phones by surveyors to help with reporting repair jobs.
- Put into action the recommendations to improve customer experience following tenant feedback
Complaints

Compare how we deal with complaints against the Housing Ombudsman’s Complaint Handling Code
-
Look at how effectively we deal with complaints
- Introduce a monthly check of a sample of complaint responses to make sure they have been handled properly
- Explain how we use complaints as an opportunity to learn
- Hold regular reviews for complaints and Housing Ombudsman cases
- Provide additional training for staff where necessary
- Get the Residents Panel to look at our complaints process from the tenant’s point of view
- Publish an annual complaints report
Communal areas
-
Work with tenants and leaseholders to agree on estate service standards, setting out what residents can expect for the cleaning and grounds maintenance of communal areas.
-
Establish a comprehensive schedule of window and block cleaning in communal areas across all our blocks.
- Make sure contractors keep better records of their work using before and after photos.

Use activities like ASB Awareness week to highlight what ASB is and what we can do about it.
