Supporting Safe, Well Managed Communities

Housing associations play a vital role in providing safe, secure homes and supporting the wellbeing of residents. At Severnside Security, we work in long term partnership with housing providers to deliver fire, security, electrical and automation solutions that protect people, meet regulatory requirements and support strong, resilient communities.

We understand the complexity of housing environments, from high rise and supported living to dispersed estates and mixed use developments. Our approach is designed to work effectively in live, occupied settings while minimising disruption for residents and housing teams.

What Matters Most in Housing

We recognise the priorities housing associations are balancing every day, including:

Z

Resident safety and wellbeing

Z

Statutory compliance and assurance

Z

Managing risk across large and varied estates

Z

Budget control and value for money

Z

Clear communication with residents and stakeholders

Our role is to help make these responsibilities easier to manage, with systems and services that are reliable, proportionate and well supported.

Our Approach

We deliver a joined up service that supports housing associations across the full lifecycle of their assets. This includes planned works, responsive maintenance and long term improvement programmes.

Our housing services typically cover:

Fire and life safety systems, including detection, emergency lighting and monitoring
Security solutions such as CCTV, door entry and access control
Electrical testing, upgrades and compliance support
Automation and access solutions for communal and estate environments

All work is delivered by skilled, directly employed engineers, supported by clear processes, strong governance and robust documentation.

Working In Partnership

We see ourselves as an extension of our clients’ teams. We work closely with housing officers, asset managers and compliance teams to plan works, manage risk and ensure services are delivered consistently across estates.

Our partnership approach includes:

Z

Clear mobilisation and planning

Z

Structured communication and reporting

Z

Resident aware working practices

Z

Ongoing servicing and performance review

This allows housing associations to plan with confidence and demonstrate compliance to boards, regulators and stakeholders.

Supporting Residents and Communities

Beyond systems and compliance, we understand the importance of resident experience. Our teams work respectfully in people’s homes and shared spaces, communicating clearly and carrying out work with care and consideration.

Alongside our core services, we support social value outcomes that strengthen communities, including local employment, skills development and community led initiatives.
