Repair and maintenance contractors start on site
Sandwell Property Care’s (part of Corporate Landlord) newly appointed contractors, Dodd Group Ltd and Graham, have started repair and maintenance work on the Borough’s non housing properties as planned.
Appointed from April 1st 2025 the companies were brought in following a full tender and due diligence process which complied with the Public Contracts Regulations (PCR) 2015 and recognised industry best practice standards (PAS91/SQ).
Luke Dove, Assistant Director – Property, Strategic Assets and Land, of Sandwell Council said: “Dodd Group Ltd and Graham have a proven track record in providing high quality services in this sector and we are pleased to have them on board. They have hit the ground running and are delivering a range of mechanical, electrical and building works for publicly owned buildings across Sandwell on our behalf, as part of our highly regarded client offer.”
Alan Millar, GRAHAM Regional Director says, GRAHAM are delighted to continue our journey with Sandwell Property Care and build on our strong collaborative working relationship to provide high quality and value for money repairs and maintenance throughout the Borough.
Matthew Lewis, Dodd Group Ltd Divisional Managing Director , commented: “It is fantastic to have the opportunity to continue our excellent relationship with Sandwell Council. As our maintenance division is headquartered in Smethwick, we have over 100 members of staff who are based here so it’s particularly pleasing for them to have re-secured work on their own doorstep. Our new contract also provides continuity for the 4 apprentices that we have employed to work on Sandwell’s properties.” Dodd Group has been providing maintenance services to Sandwell MBC since 2015 and during this time has been able to add considerable value to the local community including supporting the fund raising activities of local schools and charities such as Grove Vale Primary School and Murray Hall Food Pantry.
