Right to Repair

From the 30th September 2002, Scottish secure tenants under the Housing (Scotland) Act 2001, have the right to have certain small repairs carried out within a given timescale. The repairs that are included in this scheme are listed separately and do not exceed a maximum value of £350.00.

Rutherglen & Cambuslang Housing Association already has in place a policy and procedure covering response times for all different categories of repair, and in most cases our response time targets are more onerous than those set out in the new legislation.
