We use an independent market research company, Acuity, to carry out three monthly transactional surveys on our behalf.  The surveys ask tenants for their views on:

  • their recent repair
  • their move to one of our homes
  • their experiences of reporting an anti-social behaviour complaint

To find out more about how this research is conducted, visit our about our tenant satisfaction surveys webpage.

Please find our results below. If you have any questions, please contact our tenant engagement team

Antisocial behaviour survey

Our antisocial behaviour survey helps us to understand how happy our tenants are with the way we handle their antisocial behaviour complaints. 

The survey contains ten questions, including two questions where a tenant can give views on how we could make improvements. Around ten tenants are randomly selected each month by Acuity to complete the survey. The tenants selected will have had a antisocial behaviour complaint closed the month before.

Taking action on the things you've told us...

Our staff use the results and feedback to look at areas where we can improve our service for tenants.  Earlier this year, the Tenant Board made the decision to review the Anti-Social Behaviour service after reviewing transactional satisfaction scores.  

As a result of the review, 32 recommendations have been put together in an action plan to improve the service.

You said We will
I'm not always kept informed of when my repair will be completed. We will soon be launching a new IT system that will mean that we can keep tenants up-to-date on their repair through things like text messaging and emails. 
We want a repairs service that cares about our homes. 

Our repairs team have come up with some new repair pledges, reflecting what tenants say is important to them.  These are: 

  • Timely appointments: ensuring appointments are prompt and convenient 
  • Communication: keeping tenants updated at every stage of their repair 
  • Tidiness: always leaving the work area clean and tidy - respecting an individuals home
  • Right first time: getting the job done correctly the first time, every time 
  • Respectful and friendly: ensuring our team members are courteous and respectful 
  • Good quality of work: taking pride in delivering high-quality workmanship on every repair 
It's not always clear who is responsible for what repair, or what timescales these repairs have. We have published our Repairs Policy which has been updated to show who is responsible for each repair, and the timescales you can expect from us.
