Teign Housing and Connaught provide 100% gas safety for residents

Published by Gary Bolton for Connaught Plc in Housing and also in Health

Teign Housing and Connaught have demonstrated that they really do put safety first when it comes to the ongoing gas servicing and maintenance partnership.

Since March 2010, every single Teign Housing property that has received gas servicing and maintenance works provided by Connaught Partnerships Ltd has been certified as compliant with the annual gas safety certification Landlord Gas Safety Check.

Teign Housing and Connaught have been working in partnership since June 2009 to deliver annual gas service and maintenance works to properties across the South West. Since March 2010 a total of 1,173 gas services have been provided by Connaught to Teign Housing properties and 100% have been found to be fully compliant.

Tony Sharland, Teign Housing’s Asset Manager said: “It is vital that every home we manage is gas safe. Being 100% compliant is something we have all worked towards and we would like to thank our customers and Connaught for making this happen.”

Martin Baker, Connaught partnership manager, said: “The safety of residents is of paramount importance to both Teign Housing and Connaught and the provision of gas servicing and maintenance is an integral element of this. We are therefore delighted that 100% compliance has been achieved within all properties since March 2010 and, together with customer satisfaction figures of in excess of 90%, this is testament to the collaborative working and a drive to succeed demonstrated by both partners.”
