All Councils have been set a target of raising the standard of all its properties by the year 2010 by the Government. This target, known as the Decent Homes Standard is driving the Council's programme of modernisation in your homes.

Shropshire Council Landlord Services improvement programmes see homes improved in order to reduce the amount of day-to-day repairs required and to achieve the Government’s “Decent Homes Standard”. This is one of the most cost effective ways of keeping properties in a good state of repair. Sometimes we will delay day-to-day repairs in certain areas due to forthcoming improvement programmes.

If your home is included in an improvement programme, we will notify you of the details beforehand.
