This quarter we're focusing on safety, security & resident well-being

Following tragic events during 2017 the focus on having Fire Doors installed into high rise living accommodation, and other property types with an emphasis on communal living became a major priority for social landlords.

The public’s perception of care homes has become more intense in the last couple of years as more and more focus is placed on the needs of an ageing population.

The challenge to ensure the safety, security and well-being of residents in these environments are unique, and the upkeep of windows and doors plays a major role.

Mila Maintenance & Installation has been carrying out repairs and maintenance on windows in high rise living accommodation for nearly 30 years. The variety of specifications installed by landlords during this period, and the unique challenges that working in this kind of environment bring are the reasons why only specialist contractors undertake the work. Resident safety in these environments is paramount.

Taking a proactive approach to maintenance is essential to ensure that resident safety is always at the top of the agenda. All too often the use of general maintenance contractors or no planned maintenance schedule can lead to site issues which directly impact the comfort and well-being of residents.
