Gas and central heating repairs

Each keyworker home has a list of local contractors that can fix issues with your building’s gas and central heating. Their contact details were given to you when you moved in.

If you don’t know who your local contractors are, contact your keyworker office.

Cleaning, linen and laundry

You’re responsible for cleaning your room or flat and keeping it in good condition. We have provided each flat with a vacuum cleaner.

Linen

Laundry

There is a laundry room next to the keyworker office. You’ll need a credit or debit card to use the machines – contactless payment is also available. Laundry detergent and softener are included in the price of the wash.

You can scan the QR code on the laundry room wall to check machine availability.

The laundry room is accessible to residents 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Lost keys

Contact your keyworker office during office hours if you lose your keys or fob.

If the office is closed, call the out-of-hours service on 0300 456 2929. They will arrange access to your room or flat. On the next working day, you must contact your keyworker office, who will give you a replacement key or fob.

You will be charged for any replacement keys or fobs and for the cost of any locks or barrels we have to change.
