Communal Fencing – Tendering Stage

This notice is to advise you, that damaged communal fencing, which fall under Health & Safety Priority 1’s & 2’s on site, have been identified and the findings collated. These findings are now the subject of the tendering process in compliance with the Goulden House Co-Operative Ltd Procurement Policy. The tendering process will take approximately 28 days to complete, which is as per process. Once the successful tender/contractor has been appointed, notification will be issued to the site to advise on commencement date for the fencing repairs/replacements to be undertaken. Provision for these works is in the current budget.

May I take this opportunity, to thank each and everyone of our residents who have undertaken works to their gardens/ cut back overgrown bushes etc, which will allow these works to run smoothly, your endeavours are so very much appreciated.

Gardening & Grounds Update July 2023

This notice is to advise that your newly appointed Gardening & Grounds Contractor, MMX Garden and Property Services Ltd, undertook their first maintenance visit yesterday (11th July), their focus was Winders Road, overgrown bushes adjacent to Goulden House Approach Car Park, Inner Green Lawn, and the removal of weeds from the entire site and what a difference their work made to the site yesterday. The MMX team commented on the “thank you”, which they received from residents throughout the day regarding their work.

MMX will be back on site in two weeks’ time (their contract stipulates two visits per month in regrowth season) and their focus will be the Outer Green, Diamond Area, and all hedges.

It is wonderful to see the Grounds being returned to how they should look, and it may take a few visits to get the grounds to the standard where we wish them to be, but yesterday’s visit was a very good start.

Update on Pest Control – Tuesday 13th June 2023

This notice is to provide you with the most recent update from Pestgone (pest Control contractor), from their visit today, which is as follows:

“A routine inspection was carried out today across all areas of the premises, including all internal communal areas and landings. Eternal areas, including both Inner and Outer Greens, Communal Gardens and Bin Stores, during our increased visits to site over the past month.  We have seen a steady decrease in activity levels across the estate, this coupled with restructural and remedial work across the estate, have had a dramatic impact on the reduction of activity levels across all areas. All bait stations have been fully serviced, with bait replenished and refreshed where needed, good levels of housekeeping and hygiene standards were found during today’s inspection and staff have reported no issues since previous inspection. Bait Stations have been increased across the estate to allow greater coverage and control.  All baiting points have also had baits increased to allow full capacity monitoring. PestGone will continue to monitor on forthcoming service visits”.

Dogs Notice – Clean Up After Your Dog

Goulden House Inner Green

Please do not allow your dogs to urinate and foul on the fourth-floor walkway and this also includes the lifts. It is your responsibility as the dog owner to clean up after your dog, it is what responsible dog owners do.

There has been an unacceptable increase in the number of incidents, and it is unnecessary and unpleasant for all concerned. The Estate Office has received numerous calls and emails from very concerned residents and all the details have been passed to Wandsworth Borough Council.

This issue is currently being monitored by the Estate Office Staff and via CCTV and weekly detailed briefings are being provided to the Animal Welfare Officers at Wandsworth Borough Council and all future clean-up costs will be applied to the respective dog owner(s), via the Goulden House Co-Operative Ltd Recharge Policy.

“A routine inspection was carried out today across all areas of the premises including 4th floor internal communal areas bin stores risers and external areas with evidence of Rat activity found primarily towards entrance to 109 works are currently being carried out to block off and replace all sunken foot paths around this area to prevent further egress.
