## Description
The works include, but are not limited to, the provision of surveys and design services, consultation with customers including design development, and the scheduling and programming of all elements of the service.

Window repairs or replacements undertaken as part of External Cyclical Maintenance Planned Schemes will generally involve a limited number of windows at an individual property. It is not anticipated that such schemes will require the replacement of a significant number of windows or the complete replacement of all windows within a property.
The works also include cyclical redecoration, comprising the redecoration of existing painted or decorated surfaces, including windows, doors, fascias, rainwater and sanitary pipework, walls, soffits to external elevations, and common areas including communal rooms. Cyclical redecoration may also extend to bin stores, garages, cycle sheds, fencing, railings, screens, gates and similar features located within boundaries, paths, drives, communal areas, staircases, access decks and balconies.
Cyclical redecoration shall be deemed to include the cleaning, where specified, of external surfaces of components and products such as windows, doors, soffits, fascias, cladding and other similar elements encountered during the works.
The works further include pre-decoration repairs, comprising the repair, maintenance, renewal, reinstatement or replacement of previously decorated elements and components where such works are required prior to cyclical redecoration. This includes the inspection, repair and adjustment of hinges, locking mechanisms, handles and security devices associated with UPVC windows and external or communal doors.
The works also include the identification, surveying, management, removal and disposal of asbestos-containing materials where these are discovered during the course of the works
