How A1 Housing can help

Tenant Contents Insurance

We do not provide cover for our tenants’ and leaseholders’ household contents so you will not be protected against theft, fire, vandalism or burst pipes. We advise that all tenants should take out suitable cover to make sure that their contents are fully insured against possible loss.

While you are free to make your own arrangements, we have a low cost policy that is offered through a national insurance company. The insurance provides cover for:

• All electrical goods, for example, televisions, videos etc
• Freezer contents damaged due to electrical failure
• Lost or stolen keys
• Decoration inside your home

You can pay premiums every week, month or year. If you are interested in this scheme, please contact us for an application form. Click Contact to link to our contact details

Assistance with Garden Maintenance

Senior citizens and registered disabled tenants living in dwellings owned by Bassetlaw District Council can apply for assistance with the maintenance of their lawns and hedges.

In the case of a senior citizen they must satisfy the requirement that they do not have a son or daughter who lives in Bassetlaw.

In the case of a registered disabled person the applicant will need to supply details of their disability and disablity registration number. Disabled persons of any age can apply.

If the applicant is successful grass cutting will be carried out at their dwelling three times a year with hedge cutting carried out on the second of the three visits.
