Spire Homes planned their improvements programme to start on
9th November, and they did! They are investing over £20
million to improve properties across Rutland. They started in
Oakham, fitting new gutters, soffits and fascias and then moved to
Uppingham, where new central heating systems were installed. In
January, Spires’ contractors started to install new kitchens and
bathrooms – much to their tenant’s delight.
Sheltered schemes haven’t missed out.
Decorating has started in Carver Court and Manor View in Ketton
along with The Lodge in Oakham. All individual flats and bungalows
are having their old kitchens and bathrooms replaced.
Mrs Kennedy from Cottesmore is one of the
first people to have a new bathroom. “We’ve got a new toilet,
washbasin and bath as well as flooring and tiling. The whole room
has been transformed,” she said. “Thanks to Spire Homes
and the contractors I have a bathroom to be proud of.”
Mr and Mrs McMullen have just had new fencing
erected at their home in Ryhall. “We were really pleased with
the work which was completed to a very high standard. Hopefully all
the works will be as good in the future,” Mr McMullen
said.
