Whole house void repairs

Managing vacant properties can be a complex and challenging task. Ensuring these unoccupied properties are maintained, secured and ready for new occupants requires expertise and efficiency. ULPS, specialises in handling both minor and major voids, offering comprehensive services tailored to meet the needs of the social housing sector.

Major void: Any vacant property that requires the replacement of major components such as the kitchen, bathroom, windows or heating system, or major works from gas safety checks, asbestos work and energy upgrades to structural, roofing, and external repairs.

Minor void: Any vacant property that does not require the replacement of major components.

Average order value: £33k

ULPS recognises that managing major void properties entails more than basic maintenance, it demands a comprehensive approach that addresses all property aspects. Through our collaboration with Wolverhampton Homes we have successfully refurbished 400 void properties during 2023/24, complete with brand-new kitchens and bathrooms.

This creates a robust quality assurance environment aimed at delivering a ‘snag-free’ product to the client in the shortest possible key-to-key time.
