When we first visited this client, it was clear the building had been left behind. Peeling paint, worn-out carpets, outdated intercom systems – the kind of issues that build up when no one takes proper responsibility.
Residents were frustrated, and understandably so. Years of inaction from the previous Managing Agent had left the property looking tired and neglected, inside and out.
That’s where Block Property Solutions (BPS) came in. With a clear plan, trusted contractors, and a proactive approach, we stepped in to turn things around – and the results have been transformative.
A fresh start with real progress
Within 12 months of taking over the management, BPS made it a priority to get things moving. We arranged a Section 20 Consultation and immediately began sourcing quotes and preparing for a comprehensive programme of major works.
Our goal was simple: restore the building to the standard residents deserved – and add real long-term value for everyone living there.
What we delivered
The transformation included:
- A brand new high-tech video and door entry intercom system – providing improved security and convenience. Residents have been thrilled with the upgrade.
- Complete internal redecoration – fresh paint and new carpets throughout gave the building a modern, welcoming feel.
- Roof repairs and gutter maintenance – addressing issues that had been ignored for far too long.
- Drainage work and external repainting – including all railings around the perimeter, dramatically improving curb appeal.#
We handpicked trusted contractors who worked professionally and efficiently, delivering exceptional results from start to finish.
A win for residents and property values
The results speak for themselves. Residents are not only happy – they’re proud of their building again.
The improvements have lifted the atmosphere, boosted morale, and most impressively, increased property values by an estimated 10%. A flat once valued at £100,000 could now fetch £110,000 – a direct return on investment thanks to proactive, hands-on management.
A team that gets it done
This is what we do at BPS. We don’t just keep things ticking – we look for opportunities to improve, add value, and create spaces people are proud to call home.
Whether it’s urgent repairs or long-overdue upgrades, we take ownership and deliver with care.
