While our offices remain shut, thanks to recent changes in The Scottish Government guidelines with a loosening of key elements of Lock-down, Blackwood can return to fixing non-emergency repairs. In fact a number of small changes and updates have come thanks to Scotland entering Phase 3 which means a return to some of our usual housing services albeit with facemasks and social distancing.
Angela Currie, Operations Director and part of Blackwood's Senior Management Team has created a brief video below with a summary of what is changing, what has changed and what you can expect from Blackwood moving forward.
Please see below the Housing Service Bulletin with information covering the majority of housing services and a handy Repairs Fact Sheet to let you know what to expect and what to do if reporting or expecting a repair.
