The contract will see the company deliver responsive repairs for over 930 properties owned by Barrhead Housing Association (HA) in the region, which includes Barrhead, Neilston, Newton Mearns & Thornliebank.
In addition, Barrhead will continue to provide a range of minor works to all of their properties through a recently introduced in-house Repairs Operative service, under their subsidiary Levern Property Services.

Barrhead Housing Association's Director of Asset Management, James Ward, added: "This is an exciting new partnership that will help to ensure we're meeting our residents' needs. Customer focus, quality and value for money was key throughout the tendering process, and we're confident that in Turners we've found a provider that understands the need of our customers and the values that run through everything we do."
