CDHA Announcements
Changes to Repairs Service
From Friday 20th November 2020, the Association will be carrying out emergency repairs only as our local area falls into tier level 4. Therefore, routine repairs are currently suspended. Gas servicing will still continue as normal. We are hopeful that these restrictions will ease after the three-week period, however, this may be subject to change.
