Clean Communities
Community Gateway has a specialist team responsible for tidying and cleaning our communal areas. This is just one of the ways we work to provide tenants with a safe and clean neighbourhood the whole community can enjoy.
What you can expect from us
Our specialist team will:
- Thoroughly clear and clean empty properties, from top to bottom, ready to welcome new tenants
- Check all communal spaces every four weeks and carry out any tasks that need to be done to improve and maintain them
- Clear fly-tipped waste within five working days of being made aware of it
- Remove offensive graffiti within one working day
- Remove other forms of graffiti within three working days
- Respond to emergencies within 24 hours. This includes incidents which leave a hazardous substance behind that poses a health risk, such as urine, blood or vomit
How you can help
It is very helpful when tenants and members of the public report issues to us such as fly-tipped waste, graffiti, hazardous substances, etc. This enables us to deal with them promptly and thoroughly for the benefit of all local residents.
If you need any large items removed from your property, we recommend you contact your local council to arrange this. Councils do charged for this service, but it is the most cost-effective solution. Our rates are slightly higher than the local council, due to the tipping costs we have to pay. If you are unable to lift the items to the outside of your property yourself, we can offer this service for you at a charge.
