Update on housing repairs service

As of 5pm on 31 October 2025, our previous contractor, MCP ceased trading. A new company, MCP Plus, took over immediately and is now handling all repairs and maintenance services on behalf of the Housing Service.

There are no changes to how you report repairs. All phone numbers and contact methods remain the same.

Castle Point Borough Council is working with MCP Plus to formalise a new agreement, expected within two weeks. We are writing to all our tenants to update them on the changes and will keep you informed if there are any further developments.
