Lisburn: New kitchen and bathrooms for more than 100 Housing Executive homes in Old Warren after £1m investment
Housing Executive tenants in Lisburn are enjoying life in newly revamped homes following the completion of a major improvement scheme.
More than 100 properties in the Old Warren area were included in the project, with significant improvements carried out thanks to a £1m investment.
The scheme saw 114 homes upgraded with the installation of brand new, modern kitchens and bathrooms. In addition to this, full rewiring was also carried out throughout the properties.
At a cost of £8,760.16 per home, the improvement scheme represents a significant investment in updating homes in this area of the city.
One of the tenants who had work carried out on her home is Wendy Donald, who spends most of her time in the kitchen of her home.
She said she delighted at how the improvement work has turned out.
“Getting this kitchen has really given me a new lease of life and helped me love my home again.
