PA Housing Avis 

This, I must confess was/is the best accommodation service I have ever utilised in all my years as a locum. Having said that, there is a lot of room for improvement. Firstly, I never had my room cleaned once throughout my 2wk stay despite being reassured by management that it would. Secondly, the toilet plumbing system was faulty- the WC tank was intermittently out of water. So I could not flush the toilet after use. I had to be resourceful to avoid a stinking room. Internet access was also temperamental despite the booster installed. Nonetheless, I am grateful for the service and hope to return soon.

Its Gas safety check time and yes back again after 10 months to write another bad review , the last one being about the threatening letters from PA housing , sent because the contractor didnt show up for the appointments not me who was in waiting . Gues what The same issue !!
I get a letter from PA dated 11/2/26 telling me Sureserve will be attending on 4/3/26 at 1pm-6pm , i also have a text saying the same and a reminder the evening before , Sureserve arrive at 10.30am when im not in , and then do not attend in the scheduled slot !!
So then i get another letter from PA dated 11/3/26 telling me i have a appointment on 16/3/26 at 1pm-5pm with Sureserve , NOBODY CAME !!
I then get a appointment over the phone with a lady from Sureserve apoligising and confirming new appointment for 26/3/26 12pm-5pm . I also get a threatening legal action letter from PA dated 19/3/26 with appointment date for 26/3/26 at 12pm-5pm , i also get a text reminder at lunchtime today as with the other appoinments . ILL BE HERE TOMORROW SURESERVE < WILL YOU ?? TAKE NOTE PA !!
To top it all after Sureserve not turning up for two appointments i get a letter today dated 23/3/26 from BIRKETTS NEXT LEVEL LAW SAYING I HAVE NOT PROVIDED ACCESS for the gas safety check to be carried out despite being here twice waiting for Sureserve .
I have today complained to PA and await that outcome before going to the OMBUSMAN meanwhile perhaps PA will respond here , i see they respond to 5 star reviews but not negative ones

Roshni has been nothing short of excellent since our first interaction. Roshni has been very helpful and kept me informed during every step of the process of my application. She was always available to answer any queries or concerns I had.

Thank you Roshni.

Ok...listen to this one. I have tried getting involved with PA to make things better, believe me, I really have. Signed up for a couple of their online meetings with Microsoft Teams a while back. Another bit of a joke, in my opinion - another investment, more money - which means more rent etc.
I can't do those meetings anymore - they just don't listen - my opinion.
Not many tenants joined the meetings that I was involved in, like about 3, maybe 4?
Why would they? Ok, some will be at work, busy etc. But how many just can't deal with it anymore?
So, the issue of replacing the cladding came up, didn't it. I had stuff to say about that. First of all, at time of posting this review, the Grenfell Tower disaster was nearly 9 years ago. Far too long, but I am not going to explain the whys of that here.
Where I live, we have 3 blocks - 2 are joined together, the other is separate.
PA Housing had finally announced their plans for the cladding replacement - all the relevant cladding was going to be replaced, except the roof cladding on the separate block. The reasoning given was that the roof area on that block was effectively, 'dead space (my term)' and did not come under fire safety regulations (no threat to life, I suppose - DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH, or should that be cry?!!) so did not need to be replaced.
Well that just isn't smart is it? First of all, there is the aesthetics - one block is going to have this cladding and the others are going to have that cladding. I don't know, maybe they will install something that looks the same. Won't BE the same though, will it?
Also, if you are going to do a job properly - DO IT PROPERLY.
FAR MORE IMPORTANTLY, just because it does not fall within fire safety regulation criteria, DOES NOT MEAN it can't catch fire.
A few days before the online meeting, there was a news article on the telly. A, 'dead space', roof with dodgy cladding had caught fire. Video footage showed it really going like the, 'clappers', I swear. Funny hey?
A few days later we had the meeting. I questioned not replacing the, 'exempt', cladding but was fobbed off with, 'We need to listen to the experts'!!
But it was the experts that got us in this mess in the first place!! By the way, I'm an ex fireman. Ironic isn't it?
The, 'experts', that have entered my home, over the years, have been shocking. I have had to reason with surveyors, correct contractors' repairs myself and the rest of it. I just see things getting worse......Something I said, quite a few years back - 'The age of the professional is over. This is the age of the amateur.'
I guess this review is going to be flagged. I may have to edit it.....If PA Housing keep burying the truth, the truth will just get stronger. Survival of the fittest? These days it is more like survival of the weakest.

We have been dealing with a water leak coming from the ceiling since 17 January. After many frustrating calls and nearly two months of waiting, a plumber finally visited on 13 March.

However, he arrived without the necessary equipment to open the overhead storage area where the pipes are located, so he could not inspect the leak. He said he needed to buy tools from a plumbing shop and would return shortly, but he never came back. We spent the entire Friday waiting.

In the meantime, the leak continues. We cannot leave the flat for more than 2–3 hours because the bucket under the leak fills up quickly. The area has now also become mouldy due to the severity of the leak. This situation has seriously disrupted our work, social life, and normal living conditions.

It is unacceptable to send a plumber who does not have the basic equipment to do the job. After already waiting two months, we expect this issue to be addressed urgently and by someone properly prepared to resolve it

Response to PA Housing`s comment (17th of March):

This feels like nothing more than publicity on your part. Saying “sorry to hear that, we should have done better” isn’t enough — you should have done better in fixing a leak in a flat you are responsible for maintaining. That is exactly what we pay a high service charge for.

The ceiling is now rotten and covered in mould, and we have been expected to live in these conditions for two months as of today. That is completely unacceptable.

After yet another stressful call this morning with PA Housing, we were told — again — that someone has been assigned to the job. But when will the work actually be carried out? How much longer are we expected to wait? Another two months? There is still no clear answer.

I am beyond frustrated at this point. Being stuck at home under these conditions is taking a serious toll. If this continues for another weekend, I genuinely feel like I’m going to lose my mind.

Frankly, PA Housing is starting to feel like a scam. You have been sent videos, photos, and multiple reports. A leak is a leak — it doesn’t need endless “investigation.” Yet instead of fixing the issue, you keep sending people to assess it without resolution.

It makes me question what exactly our service charge is paying for — because it certainly doesn’t seem to be going toward actually solving problems.

A++++ easy to work with

Roshni Gorania is a great person, she has helped me and made communicating 10x more easier. She has made my life way more easier and I cannot stop thanking her for all the effort she put into me and my family.

In January my council nominated me for a property with pa housing. A lovely lady called Roshni from the lettings department contacted me and informed me all about the process ahead. Roshni was amazing kept me well informed throughout the whole process, even when I was getting anxious she kept responding and reassuring me. Tomorrow I pick up my keys and can begin moving into my new home. Thank you very much Roshni 😊

PA rob their tennants. Every year they send out service charges, we are charged for bulk rubbish removal but we have wheely bins, communal window cleaning when there are no communal windows and 50 quid a year for communal electric - thats to run 3 led light bulbs on motion detectors and timers. Complained about this several times and no action has been taken. Next step is the ombudsman. The estates team do not call you back nor will the call center staff direct you to them. Community housing officers quit faster than politicians and there is no local contact for help. Avoid if you can.

Worst customer service ever i m trying to get in touch with my neighbourhood coordinator for 2 weeks lots of e mails back and forth from different departments and still nothing its borderline ridiculous

Recently I had a shower installed and tiles fitted ..the work team behind all this was absolutely brilliant very professional and did the job brilliant cannot fault them .they explained everything and mannerisms was 10/10... Bathroom is small yet they never complained and worked around the furniture and the job was complete cannot thank them enough x

Hello mum just had a kitchen done and my mum is a shielding patient and my mum felt so safe and secure thank u pilon and pa housing for everything very fast very friendly and kitchen looks amazing

Excellent service did my bathroom and it’s great

Writing on behalf of my aunty who has been having ongoing issues in her property. She has since been in touch with Sarah Mann who as reassured, gone above and beyond and has put her at ease. Once the work had been done Sarah even checked in to make sure everything went as planned and that my aunty was happy with the outcome. Really appreciate the extra mile Sarah has gone for my aunty.
Thank you!

I have been in contact with Abi from the Tenancy Sustainment Team. She successfully helped me renew my PIP.
Abi is so professional, kind, calm and helpful. She arranged for a 3 way telephone call so I didn't have to speak to the DWP on my own & sorted out technical problems with the online forms. I wouldn't have been able to complete the hideous thing without help.
Everyone I've had contact with from the Tenancy Sustainment Team over the years have been quietly helpful. They are vital to have around when the DWP can be so hostile.

Shahaed very helpful,he always willing to help and always tries to solve my issues. Shahaed always polite and respectful.

Friendly helpful supportive in my current situation thank you

My experience with PA Housing was very posative.
From Tara in Managed Exchanges to Linda Robinson who rang with regard to handing in Notice on the property, they were both very professional, but also very kind and considerate as it was quite an emotional time for all the family.

Had a new bathroom installed, work took a little longer than anticipated but communication was excellent. Was notified what would be happening amd how things were being done. Steve from p.a and Clare from Pilon were brilliant, contant check-ins and calls round to check progress and if anything needed sorting or rectifying they sorted it. All contractors weee friendly and efficient and cleaned up well after their visits. Overall im happy with my bathroom and service i received feom all involved. Thankyou.
