How are we performing?

Welcome to our latest report, which shows how we are performing. The figures in this report cover the three months between April to June 2025.

Maintenance

Our Group maintenance company Cambria Maintenance Services complete three out of four of the day-to-day repairs on residents’ homes. However, some of the more specialist work is carried out by external contractors. This work is often more complicated and can take longer.

Making our homes more energy efficient

We have received funding from Welsh Government’s Optimised Retrofit Project (ORP) for nine projects which will improve the energy efficiency on 180 homes..   

 Two homes in Brackla, Bridgend have been fitted with solar PV and battery storage and work is underway on four other projects. The largest of those is at Ty Bryn Seion in Merthyr Tydfil, a scheme of 40 flats where we are insulating the building with external wall insulation (EWI), upgrading the communal heating system and installing solar PV panels.   

Three further projects are due to start soon while plans are being drawn up for another scheme which we hope to start before the end of the year.
