Block Management Welling

Welling's No 1 Managing agent

Block and Estate Management is about the minutia done well: the role of a Managing Agent is technical, administrative, practical and political. It takes joined up thinking to do what we do well as well as sufficient resource to react to whatever is necessary day-to-day.

As a Managing Agent we know our true business is building relationships with people. Our people are empowered and know that they can make a difference to how people feel about where they live. We call our 'Property Manager's 'Relationship Managers’ to embody our values which are to build relationships, add value, and to take the initiative. We lead the market in transparency and focusing on risk, cash, repairs and place making, usually in that order, and was the first Managing Agent to introduce a ' money back guarantee ’.

Being who we are would be impossible without our passionately committed people, whose qualifications we sponsor and who we support professionally to be the best they can be, as achieving a national training award and our Silver IIP status confirms.

Block Management Overview

Block and Estate Management is about the minutia done well: the role of a Managing Agent is technical, administrative, practical and political. It takes joined up thinking from a multi-disciplined team with one eye on the strategic long term plan and with sufficient resource to react to whatever is necessary day-to-day: the skills that block and estate management spans are: politics, building pathology, finance, legal knowhow and of course customer service too.

As a leading Managing Agent, we are a one-stop-property shop. We understand that our role is sometimes signposting Clients to get expert advice and supporting them to interpret such advice and make decisions. We support and help owners reach out to government and other local services where matters are beyond our day-to-day block management remit.

As a Managing Agent we know our true business is building relationships with people. Our people are empowered and know that they can make a difference to how people feel about where they live. We call our 'Property Manager's 'Relationship Managers' as our focus which is written up in our values is (a) to build relationships, (b) add value, and (c) to take the initiative: to us this means managing relationships. We lead the market in transparency and focusing on risk, cash, repairs and place making, usually in that order, and was the first Managing Agent to introduce a 'money back guarantee'.

We are not shy of hard work and believe our ability to get stuck in and find solutions that sets us apart. We are innovative to the core and committed to implementing good ideas in pursuit of 5* service.

Being who we are would be impossible without our passionately committed people, whose qualifications we sponsor and who we support professionally to be the best they can be, as achieving a national training award and our Silver IIP status confirms.

"I was concerned about a possible fraudulent contractor trying to enter the building. I called Ringley and was passed onto a member of the team who was very helpful with good communication skills and also helped with another issue outside his remit."

Angela 60 days ago

"We have had a problem with noise from the flat above us in Lady Isle House Ferry Court Cardiff. We contacted a Mr Paul Staniforth who immediately became involved and addressed the situation. We really do appreciate what he has done for us and cannot thank him enough. Once again a big thank you to Mr Staniforth. The noise above was intolerable."

History of Welling

Welling, located in the southeastern part of London in the London Borough of Bexley, has a history that dates back to medieval times. Originally a rural area, Welling was part of the manor of Bexley in the Domesday Book, with records showing the area was predominantly farmland. Its name is believed to have Old English origins, with "Welling" possibly derived from the Old English word "Wella," meaning spring or stream, reflecting the area’s natural features.The industrial revolution in the 19th century brought significant changes to Welling. The development of the South Eastern Railway in the 19th century, with a station opening in Welling in 1849, marked a major turning point in the area's development. This increased connectivity to central London encouraged suburban development, with Welling evolving from a rural village into a residential area. During this period, Welling saw an increase in housing, and its transformation into a working-class suburban neighborhood began.

In the 20th century, Welling continued to grow as part of the greater London urban expansion. The area became more densely populated, with further development in housing, schools, and public services. The two World Wars, particularly the Second World War, had a lasting impact on the area, with many buildings damaged during bombings, but Welling saw significant rebuilding and modernization in the post-war years.Today, Welling is a bustling suburban area with a mix of residential housing and local amenities. The area retains a suburban feel, with many green spaces, including Danson Park, a large public park that is a focal point for recreation. It remains a popular choice for families and commuters, thanks to its good transport links to central London and its relatively affordable housing compared to more central parts of the city.
