Equity Housing have appointed a new provider, Forrest, to provide the repairs service for their customers following a review last year.
They will begin work from 1st April 2013 to provide repairs for customers in Greater Manchester and Stockport, Cheshire, Derbyshire, Yorkshire, Shropshire and Merseyside.
Representatives from Equity and Forrest have been meeting Equity customers recently to get their views and what type of repairs service they wanted.
Commenting on Forrest’s appointment, David Fisher, Chief Executive of Equity Housing Group, said:
“We want to provide our customers with a reliable, high quality repairs service which is easy to access, provides value for money and gets it right first time. Forrest has an excellent reputation and a proven track record within the housing sector and we look forward to working together over the next four years to deliver a superb service for our customers.”
