Hidden Homes Work to Start at The Grange

Construction work at The Grange, on the two Hidden Homes flats, is to commence next week. H&F Repairs and Maintenance contractor Mitie will be doing the works. Hoardings and site preparation will start on Monday, 3rd March, with the main construction work starting on the following Monday, 10th March.

Mitie will have a compound on the grass area in front of The Grange and they will operate their site office from Flat 3 of the building. The flat will also be used for drop in sessions where residents can raise issues with the project manager; all drop-in sessions will be notified by mail shots and on the notice boards of the block. Mitie will shortly be writing to residents with further details of the works and how they can be contacted.

For all residents living in The Grange that currently occupy a shed, H&F will write to you separately, outlining the decant and removal process of your belongings to the new sheds. In summary, all residents will be given one month’s notice, of the date that you will be required to remove your belongings from your current shed to your new one. At present, the removal period has been scheduled from Friday 11 April to Sunday 20th April. At this stage, please can you make a note of this date and a further update will be provided once the contractors have started on site. Should you require assistance with moving your belongings, the council will also be able to provide this.
It is hoped the building work will be finished by August this year.
