Charges for the Estate
These charges are for the shared areas of your estate.
Your estate is described in the 1st schedule of your
lease and shown on your lease plan. These charges do not
include work carried out to public paths and roads (rather than
estate roads managed by Ascham Homes) running through the
estate.
Grounds maintenance charges
include the costs of weeding hard surface areas, cutting grass and
pruning shrubs and rose bushes. The Grounds Maintenance team
are required to keep the grounds to an agreed standard and will
normally visit each block and estate according to a planned
schedule. The schedule will sometimes have to change, depending on
the weather.
Day-to-day repairs to the
estate. These charges include work carried out to
any part of the estate that is not part of a block. For
example roads, paths, car park and garage areas, pram sheds, store
cupboards and fences on the estate. We will not charge you
for repairs carried out to garages themselves, unless you own the
garage involved.
Communal electricity may be
charged as an estate cost if lamp columns on estate roads are
linked to individual blocks
