Where we started, and most of what we do
Housing associations are where Alect began, and they remain most of our work. We understand the pressures you face: rising repair demand, regulatory scrutiny, damp and mould duties, and residents who rightly expect to be kept informed.
We act as an extension of your repairs team. We work to your priorities and schedules of rates, treat residents with respect, and give you the information you need to close jobs and answer queries quickly.
How we support housing associations
- Responsive repairs, including out-of-hours call-outs
- Empty-home works to your lettable standard
- Damp and mould investigation and repair
- Planned works and programmes
- Clear completion information for every job

Very happy with the engineer that came. He was very thorough and made very little mess, which he did clean up.
