The contract 15 year deal will see Bullock provide internal and external improvement works including the installation of new kitchens and bathrooms, electrical rewiring and improving the energy efficiency of properties.

An integral part of the contract is to provide employment and training opportunities for local people and support local suppliers.

“Bullock has delivered this programme not only with high quality workmanship and skill, but also with an approach to resident engagement that has added real value to overall delivery.”
