1 story · 1 council

Ealing Council's housing repairs service is under scrutiny for recent performance issues and delays, despite overall improvements.

Ealing Council's housing repairs service is currently under scrutiny by the Housing and Environment Scrutiny Panel due to concerns about delays and performance issues. While overall repairs performance had improved over the past year, a noticeable under-performance was reported in August 2026. This dip was attributed to contractor resource pressures, vacancies, and service transition activity.

The Housing and Environment Scrutiny Panel heard that the under-performance in August 2026 was linked to the implementation of the new Repairs Diagnostic Centre. No further meetings or decisions regarding the service's performance have been announced. The service is responsible for housing repairs within Ealing Council.
