Following the successful completion of work at Connaught Court, an RMBI care home in York, Greens were delighted to receive a letter of thanks from the Home Manager, reaffirming the commitment of our team to providing a first class service.

She writes, “As a very large care home we constantly have tradesmen coming and going, sometimes with a great deal of thoughtless disruption to our residents.

Alan and Dean on the other hand are a real credit to your business, they are firm favourites with both residents and staff, they have caused us such minimal disruption we hardly know they are there, they are unfailingly polite, cheerful and respectful to our residents and their work is of the highest standard.

We are all delighted with the service we have received from them and I felt I had to write to congratulate you for having two such excellent workers on your payroll and to thank you for a job very well done.

They are at present working within our Dementia care unit and again treating these very vulnerable people with respect and kindness, please convey our heartfelt thanks to them both and rest assured we will certainly be using Greens again if we can expect work of this standard.”

This month, Efficiency North, a consortium of social housing landlords has named a huge line up of mainly trade contractors for their housing improvement and maintenance programmes.

Greens Decorating Contractors were among the 98 firms appointed to share in the £1 billion scheme across the North of England. Greens has been approved for decorating contracts in excess of £100k for the west sub-region, a framework with a value exceeding £325m.

Lee Parkinson, director of Efficiency North, said: “We are delighted to have achieved such a diverse offer in the framework, with a mix of larger national players as well as smaller local businesses.”

“All the successful contractors demonstrated in their tender submissions that the improved certainty of time, quality and cost the Elemental Works Framework aims to establish will be delivered.”

The 98 successful firms were chosen from more than 740 contractors who expressed an interest in the scheme, which is expected to deliver annual expenditure and process efficiency savings of 10%.
