Greater Manchester-based firms Emanuel Whittaker, Jackson & Jackson, Casey Group and A Connolly, along with Warrington-based Bell Group, have been chosen as main contractors to lead the improvement programme to 2,900 homes across Salford.

Under the scheme 720 homes will get new kitchens, 660 will get new bathrooms, 700 will be fitted with new windows and around 1,200 homes will have new doors.

Refurbishment work will take place at ageing tower blocks Canon Green Court in Broughton and Fitzwarren Court and Albion Towers in Pendleton.

The three-year investment programme is the second phase of a £75m project to bring all Salix Homes properties up to the Decent Homes standard by 2020.
