From one website, you’ll have access to the best the UK has to offer including emergency assistance, an online property portal, valuation services, administration services and legal assistance, plus much more. It doesn’t get any easier than that!
Who can use Block in a Box?
The website caters to everybody who manages a block of flats or apartments in the UK, including:
- Residents’ Management Companies
- Right to Manage companies
- Residents Associations
Why do I need Block in a Box?
We’ve launched Block in a Box because we don’t think there is enough support out there for those who self-manage their block of flats. There are many service providers in the market but many do not understand the complexities of blocks of flats and leasehold properties.
That’s why we have taken the steps to make it as straightforward and stress-free as possible; putting everything you need in one easy-to-reach place.
What services can I access through Block in a Box?
When creating the new website, we worked closely with a team of experienced directors so that we could accurately include everything you might need. From there, we hand-picked some of the best, most trusted services in the UK. We’ve done all the groundwork so that you don’t have to!
Company Secretarial Solutions: Providing you with reliable administrative support for your company.
Service Charge Collection: Provided through our Manage Your Block portal, you’ll be able to design, email and save all service charge demands with a click of your mouse.
Service Charge Arrears collection: Helping you when residents do not pay.
