Cladding Remediation Decant in Edinburgh

Cladding remediation programmes often require phased resident decanting as works progress. We provide accommodation aligned with programme schedules.

Edinburgh's historic housing stock, including listed buildings and traditional tenements, can present unique challenges when incidents occur. Accommodation sourcing must account for the city's high visitor demand and seasonal availability.

Temporary Accommodation During Cladding Remediation Decant

Cladding removal and replacement programmes can take months to complete. Phased decanting ensures works can proceed safely while residents are accommodated in suitable temporary housing nearby.

Key Challenges

Programme changes require flexible accommodation. Different household types need different options. Extended programmes need cost-effective solutions.
