Hathershaw neighbourhood

This year we’re spending £463,000 on improvements to 86 homes in Hathershaw.

Planned work:

We're repointing brickwork which has weathered over time.  This involves grinding out the original cement mortar between the bricks and replacing it.

Benefits for you:

Repointing will ensure that the structure of your property is sound and weatherproof for the long term.

When will we be carrying out work at your home?

We will contact you to arrange a convenient time to complete the work.

Connolly’s Resident Liaison Officer will make an appointment to visit you, get to know you, explain everything you need to know about the work.

If you’ve not had an appointment yet don’t worry, they’re still working through the list of 129 homes.

What do you need to do?

It’s really important that you allow us into your home to complete these improvements, and we thank you for your cooperation.

All FCHO staff and contractors we work with always carry photo ID.

If someone visits your home claiming to be from FCHO or a firm linked with us, always check their ID. If you’re still suspicious about them, call our Contact Centre on 0161 393 7117.

During their first home visit, Connolly’s Resident Liaison Officer will let you know exactly how you need to prepare.

How much notice will you get of the work?

You will get final confirmation of the appointment at least 7 days before the work. Connolly will already have asked you about your commitments (e.g., holidays, working patterns etc.) and will try to fit round you. But if the appointment they offer isn’t convenient just let them know as soon as possible to they can rearrange it.

How long will the work at your home take?

It normally takes one week to ten days to complete this repointing work depending on your home, and this includes putting up and removing the scaffold. We'll do our best to keep to this schedule but it may be affected by weather conditions.
