Estate inspections

Estate inspections

Estate inspections help to keep your neighbourhood safe and tidy. Your housing and estate officers do informal estate inspections throughout the year. They look to see if there are any issues, report them and arrange for work to be carried out. 

Housing and estate officers, together with trained volunteers, also carry out formal estate inspections. They look at a range of issues, including: landscaping, pathways, communal areas in buildings, fly-tipping and signs of infestations. These are carried out from April to October. 

The schedule of when your estate is being inspected in 2022 is below. Please use our form to report any issues you think need our attention.
