Service Charge Accounting

Transparent service charge budgets, detailed statements, and year-end reconciliation. We prepare clear sinking fund projections and manage reserve fund contributions so leaseholders always know where their money is going.

Compliance Management

Comprehensive fire safety, gas safety, electrical installation condition reports, asbestos management, and building regulations compliance. We maintain a live compliance calendar with automated reminders to ensure nothing slips.

Insurance Management

Buildings insurance procurement, claims handling support, and annual risk assessments. We work with specialist brokers to secure competitive cover tailored to each block's specific requirements.

Sinking Fund Management

Long-term fund planning for major works, cyclical decorations, and capital improvements. We produce 5- and 10-year projections so leaseholders can plan contributions and avoid unexpected special levies.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our block management services.

How is the service charge budget set for my block?

We work closely with the managing agent or RTM company to prepare an annual budget based on historical expenditure, known upcoming works, and inflationary adjustments. Leaseholders receive a full breakdown with clear explanations of each cost line.

What happens if a major repair is needed outside the budget?

We assess urgency, obtain competitive quotes from vetted contractors, and present a clear recommendation. For planned major works we follow Section 20 consultation procedures, ensuring leaseholders have full visibility and the right to challenge before any commitment.

Can you take over an existing block with ongoing issues?

Yes. We conduct a thorough handover audit covering compliance status, financial position, outstanding repairs, and service charge arrears. Our onboarding team then works through a structured transition plan to resolve legacy issues within the first 90 days.

How do you handle complaints from leaseholders?

Every complaint is logged, acknowledged within 48 hours, and assigned to the block manager with a clear resolution timeline. We provide monthly complaint summaries to the managing agent and use patterns to drive continuous improvement.
