Planned Maintenance
programme 2014 – 2019
Improvements to your home during
the next five years
Our five-year Planned Maintenance
programme sets out the major
work Link will carry out in your
home between April 2014 and
March 2019.
We have included a summary of the key
events throughout individual projects and
on the back page further details on what
may be involved with each improvement.
As part of the preparation, and before
work starts in your home, we will consult
with your Housing Officer to identify any
personal needs you have which may need
to be taken into account during the work.
Your address may not appear in the
programme at this stage but we feel it is
important to share the information with
everyone. We will write to you separately to
keep you informed of any work to be
carried out in your own home.
Sometimes work may need to be rescheduled. We try to keep these changes
to a minimum and will always write to let
you know if this has to happen. When the
work is finished we will ask you to complete
a survey form as this will help us to make
sure you are happy with the finished
product and identify any issues that could
be improved for future contracts.
Beyond the works noted in this
programme, Link also carries out a range of
other work such as external and internal
common area painting, gas servicing,
estate management repairs and a variety of
KEY EVENTS – ALL CONTRACTS
All contracts follow a similar series of events. These are:
• Letter of introduction – Telling you about the work to be
carried out and when this may occur. This letter may be sent
out weeks in advance of the work starting in your home.
• Letter to arrange an inspection – This will be to arrange a
time when Link or our contractor can come and inspect your
home. This inspection will provide the detailed information to
help us decide the extent of works needed in your home or
that, in certain instances, no work is needed.
• Letter from contractor – To advise you of the proposed dates
to carry out the work in your home.
• Work carried out – Most major works such as bathroom/
kitchen replacements or a central heating installation are
completed within five days.
• Post work inspection – This will be carried out by Link after
the completion of the works and arrangements made to have
the contractor attend to any defects.
servicing contracts for items such as fire alarms, lifts and warden
call systems

Handy guide to the work carried out in your home
Upgrade of Kitchen
We will:
• Replace all kitchen units and worktops including the
stainless steel sink, taps, local pipework, washing
machine valves and waste pipes.
• Replace the electric extractor fan, or fit a new one if
this is possible.
• Replace electrical power sockets.
• Replace wall tiling from worktop to bottom of kitchen
wall units.
A kitchen surveyor will visit to design a kitchen layout
to suit your property. The surveyor will discuss the
proposed design with you, leave a copy of the drawing
and return a copy to Link. At this stage you can choose
your kitchen units and worktop colours from a range of
choices.
There may be some re-design of the kitchen layout
which means your existing floor coverings may need
replaced. Link pays a standard disturbance allowance
to help replace items (such as floor coverings and
redecoration) not hidden by the new units and wall tiles.
Replacement of Gas Boiler or Full Gas
Heating System
We will:
• Replace the gas boiler, programmer/time-clock,
water pump and thermostatic radiator valves.
If the full system is being replaced then all the
radiators will also be replaced. There may be some
instances where some pipe work may need to be
replaced. Link pays a standard disturbance allowance if
you are having your full system replaced, to help you
redecorate any walls where heaters have been altered
or moved.
Replacement of Electric Storage Heating
System with an alternative Heating System
We will:
• Replace the electric storage heating system and, if
possible, replace it with a more energy efficient
system. At this stage we cannot say what type of
system will be fitted, as this will be dependent on
particular circumstances that exist for the area your
property is located in.
Upgrade of Bathroom
We will:
• Replace the bath (or shower cubicle), provide or
renew electric shower unit, wash hand basin
together with localised water and waste pipes.
• Replace the wash hand basin and toilet if you have a
second bathroom.
• Replace the electric extractor fan in main bathroom
(and second toilet, if you have one).
• Provide decorative, waterproof boarding in place of
ceramic tiles around the bath, shower and wash
hand basin.
• Fit new glass shower screen to side of bath to
replace the need for a shower curtain.
Certain addresses listed have had medical
adaptations such as a level access or wet floor shower.
In these instances we will assess and replace as
necessary the shower, toilet and wash hand basin.
Link pays a standard disturbance allowance to
assist with any possible redecoration you may have.
Replacement of Doors and Windows
We will:
• Replace external close entrance doors and the
windows within your home.
Timber facings are used on the inside to cover any
damage to plasterwork caused when removing the old
windows – this means that any re-decoration should be
minimal after the contractor is finished.
We fit good quality windows and these arrive with a
factory finish to avoid painting in your home. If you have
difficulties using standard handles on windows, then
Link will try to arrange for alternatives if this is possible.
We will try to identify specific requirements during the
initial survey and before the work starts.
