Social housing and estate programmes for Longton properties
If your property is in Longton or the ST3 district or nearby Stoke-on-Trent, Newcastle under Lyme and Kidsgrove, it is within our Staffordshire coverage. It is roughly 2 miles south-east of Stoke-on-Trent.
Work on Longton rented homes and blocks is booked around tenants and residents, with access arranged through your agent if you prefer. For commercial buildings in Longton, the survey also considers building use and fire requirements before a material is specified.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Staffordshire has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.
As for paperwork, in Longton filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
