Redrow has said it has signed the government’s Self Remediation Contract.
The legally binding agreement commits the housebuilder to pay for the remediation of fire safety issues in high-rise buildings.
Levelling up secretary Michael Gove has given housing developers until today to sign the contract.
Redrow said this morning: “As referred to in our interim statement, the Self Remediation Contract widens builders’ responsibilities regarding potential remediation work which may need to be undertaken. Although this would mean an increase to our building safety provision, we do not expect this increase to be substantial. Regardless of the Self Remediation Contract formalities, we are proceeding with the remediation of the buildings concerned.”
