Bathroom Refurbishments
Langstane Housing Association
Early in January 2020, we were awarded a refurbishment programme contract for Aberdeen based Langstane Housing Association’s housing stock. This required us to completely strip out and replace 33 bathrooms within fully occupied properties. The installation works covered the full scope of plumbing and ventilation, as well as electrical, wet-wall, flooring and decoration.
To ensure that both Langstane’s and their residents’ needs were met, along with any necessary special adjustments to individual homes, we performed property surveys before beginning the work. Our Tenant Liaison Officer (TLO) was on hand from the get-go to conduct the surveys and liaise with residents, as well as arranging access for works to commence.
Each resident was also provided with a step by step brochure detailing the daily activity our team would be carrying out in their homes, along with care instructions at the completion of the work for their new bathroom.

Our installation teams are well accustomed to carrying out refurbishment works in occupied properties. They adhere to our strict ‘Code of Conduct’ within each resident’s home, which was carried out carefully with each property and resident being treated with respect and compassion.
Throughout the works Langstane Housing Association’s properties, housekeeping was of paramount importance to ensure there was minimal disruption to the residents. Using floor protection and moving and covering furniture with protective dust sheets, our team were able to ensure that residents’ homes were left clean, tidy and undamaged. All excess materials were removed at the end of each day, all debris was swept clear and no equipment was left unattended, to avoid and potential accidents or health and safety issues.
At each stage of the refurbishment the client had instant access to the status and progression of each property through our Business Management System. Since beginning the contract with Langstane, we’ve received very good feedback regarding our method of works, our professionalism and our sound knowledge of the practices and safety.
Langstane Housing Association have been in touch with us to let us know that the team working on the tools have gone ‘above and beyond’ and showed attention to detail and pride in their work throughout the project.
Due to the pandemic and the fact that these properties are occupied, the work has not yet been completed. However, of the jobs that have completed, our surveys have outlined that five out of six Langstane Housing Association tenants have either been ‘very satisfied’ or ‘fairly satisfied’ with the overall installation and service provided by our team.
