Maintenance work has started to install new windows in up to 480 properties in the south side of Glasgow.
Glen Oaks Housing Association has contracted CCG Asset Management (CCG AM) to complete work on the new planned maintenance programme.
CCG AM will survey every property to establish the size and fenestration of each window. An installation schedule will then be agreed with both Glen Oaks and the tenant. The first installations in phase one are already underway.
CCG Asset Management Manager, Stephen Riley, said: "On behalf of CCG AM, I can say that we are delighted to be working with Glen Oaks Housing Association. Our site team has vast experience in this area of planned renewals and will ensure that the new Alu-Clad triple-glazed windows are installed with our trademark care and efficiency."
Glen Oaks Housing Association Limited Chief Executive, Alasdair McKee, added: "On behalf of Glen Oaks Housing Association, we are delighted to be working with CCG Asset Management again to complete this important project for the Association. The fitting of new triple-glazed windows and balcony doors will greatly enhance both the sound and heat insulation in residents' homes.
"We are very pleased also that CCG Asset Management are working closely with us and our partners at Workingrite to provide much-needed training and employment opportunities for local people, including 3 apprenticeships. This is the biggest major improvement project that the Association has undertaken in recent years and it is great to see the positive impact it is having, both in terms of the quality of the work and the boost in opportunities it is bringing to the local area."
