Local Authorities

Supporting Local Authorities with Full Property Maintenance and Compliance

Offering

Comprehensive damp remediation, repairs, maintenance, and specialist building services tailored for council properties and housing associations.

GME Painting Contractors has been supporting local authorities since 2016, delivering mould eradication, responsive repairs, and painting and decorating services across both housing and non-housing portfolios. Our team is skilled at managing public sector properties, offering flexibility to meet fluctuating workloads while maintaining consistent standards.

Alongside our current mould eradication contracts with four separate councils, we work closely with social housing landlords and service providers to deliver essential disrepair services. Our proactive approach has seen us clear significant job backlogs, earning a reputation as the 'clean-up company' trusted to restore compliance and improve service levels.

Resident safety and wellbeing are central to everything we do. All operatives are DBS checked and trained in safeguarding, ensuring work is carried out sensitively around vulnerable residents, including the elderly, disabled, and those with complex needs.
