Keeping tenants safe
Our top priority is keeping you safe. Through our Safe Homes Promise we will provide all tenants with an annual statement of the building and fire safety works that have taken place in your home and block. Below are the safety checks we carry out.
Fire safety
Regular risk assessments are carried out to identify safety concerns and complete
improvement works.
Gas safety
We carry out a free annual safety check of our gas appliances and pipework in tenants’ homes.
Smoke & carbon monoxide alarms
Having a working smoke alarm in your home is one of the best ways to keep you and your
family safe. If your home has a gas or solid fuel appliance then it should also have a carbon monoxide alarm. Test both alarms regularly. If you are not sure it is working, and or you don’t have one, please urgently contact the Repair Team on 020 8915 2000 or email repairs@suttonhousingpartnership.org.uk
Electrical testing
We are responsible for maintaining and testing the electrics in your home. We carry out this check once every five years. This will help keep you safe and reduce the possibility of a breakdown or loss of power. Our contractor will contact you to make arrangements to carry out the test when due, and any work that needs to be done.
