This website is a repository of documents provided by Hamways about the planned works and a centralised place for residents to provide feedback.
For now, the onus is on the work that Hamways intends to carry out on the porches rather than general maintenance issues, which should be reported via the usual channel.
About this website
Since sending the residents a demand for payments into the Reserve fund, the general feeling is that Hamways is acting unfairly and undertaking unaffordable works which, in some cases, aren’t needed in the short term.
It has also become apparent that the way Hamways has shared information leaves a lot to be desired, with many residents unaware of the full facts. This website holds documents in a centralised place, along with summaries to help you navigate through the labyrinth of technical jargon used throughout the documents.
Documents supplied by Hamways

Please take a minute to read the Hamways Appeal document, which we intend to submit to Hamways. It’s felt that if the majority of residents agree to this, then Hamways will have to take more notice of our objections.
Therefore, if you agree with this, please use the form to provide your feedback, which will be used to provide an overall consensus of any concerns that the residents have.
Please note: Ideally, it would be more effective to include your property number, but by ticking no, your wishes will be respected.
Hamways commissioned Hallas & Co to inspect the court and compile a report outlining the possible works required over the next decade. Hamways paid in the region of £3000.00 for this report.
