I am a resident of the Stirling area and for the past three years, I have been directly impacted by the poor quality of workmanship and lack of planning from the Stirling Council's housing repairs team. The issues range from shoddy workmanship to a lack of common sense in general planning. This has led to continuous stress and inconvenience that no resident should have to endure.

The state of housing repairs in our community is not just my personal struggle; it reflects a broader problem affecting many residents who rely on council services for their homes' maintenance. It's time we demand better.

According to data from Shelter Scotland (2019), 1 in 3 council homes does not meet the Scottish Housing Quality Standard (SHQS). This statistic underscores how widespread these issues are and shows that our experiences are part of a systemic problem within council-managed properties.

We need immediate action from Stirling Council to improve their housing repair services. We call upon them to ensure all workers are adequately trained, implement better scheduling systems for repairs, and conduct thorough inspections post-repairs.

By signing this petition, you're supporting an improvement in living conditions for all residents affected by substandard council repair works in Stirling and other surrounding areas. Please sign this petition today; let's hold our local government accountable for providing us with safe and well-maintained homes.
