Novus Property Solutions is continuing its longstanding relationship with The Riverside Group with a high-volume framework contract for works across England.
The two-year planned multi-void replacement works, which has an estimated value of over £970,000, will see Novus carry out a variety of refurbishment works across a significant number of properties up and down the country with the aim of getting families into homes, reducing existing voids and mitigating any rental losses.
Novus and The Riverside Group have a pre-existing relationship with the maintenance and compliance contractor previously completing a variety of works for the housing association including fitting brand new kitchens, windows, doors and bathrooms on existing properties stretching across England.
The Riverside Group is one of the leading registered providers of social housing within the UK, offering affordable housing as well as support to all of its residents regardless of their situation.
The Stoke-headquartered contractor will be supporting and working alongside the Direct Labour organisation to allow more families to get into the homes they deserve at a much quicker rate.
Commenting on the new framework win, Sam Frame, Head of Operations at Novus said: “We’re proud to have secured another multi-void framework contract with The Riverside Group and we’re looking forward to continuing to build on our existing relationship with The Riverside Group that allows us to work as one.
“This contract comes as Novus continues to build on the success of our five-year growth strategy, which includes nurturing our relationship with our valued existing clients, as well as securing new high value, long term contracts.”
