April Place, Sawbridgeworth
We're delighted to be investing in April Place as part of our ongoing commitment to improving our homes and neighbourhoods.
What work will be taking place?
The improvement programme will include:
- New roofs to the main apartment building and neighbouring Clarion bungalows.
- New fascias, soffits, guttering and rainwater pipes.
- Replacement flat roofs to entrance canopies and the communal stairwell.
- Redecoration of internal communal areas, including walls, ceilings, stairways and handrails.
- New flooring within the communal corridors and stairwells.
- External decoration of railings, fences, gates and other painted surfaces.
- A new communal entrance door to improve security and ease of use.
- Upgrades to a number of external store, cupboard and meter doors where required.
How will residents benefit?
These improvements will help protect residents' homes from the weather, enhance the appearance of the buildings and create brighter, more attractive communal spaces. The investment will improve the overall look and feel of April Place while helping to keep homes and shared areas in great condition for years to come.
