Building Maintenance — A Case Study

Ellice Construction was appointed by an established Essex-based property management and estate agency to provide comprehensive maintenance support across their managed portfolio of residential and mixed-use properties.

The client required a reliable and responsive contractor to handle both planned and reactive works, ensuring properties remained safe, compliant, and well-presented for residents and landlords alike.

  • Our ongoing maintenance contract covers a wide range of general building services, including:

    • Heating and Boiler Systems: Routine servicing, safety certification, and responsive repairs.

    • Plumbing and Drainage: Inspections, leak detection, pipework repairs, and drain clearance.

    • Electrical Testing and Repairs: EICR testing, lighting maintenance, and electrical fault resolution.

    • General Maintenance Works: Decorating, carpentry, minor refurbishments, and other day-to-day upkeep tasks across communal and private areas.

  • Ellice Construction works closely with the property management team to deliver a structured, proactive maintenance service. Regular inspections help identify potential issues early, reducing costly reactive callouts and disruption to tenants.

    Our dedicated team provides a 24/7 call-out service, ensuring urgent repairs are attended promptly and professionally. Using a digital reporting system, all works are logged and shared with the client in real time, giving full visibility of progress, compliance, and costs.
