Under One Roof has partnered with the University of Strathclyde to create a toolkit on forming and running owners’ associations.
Under One Roof has published  a toolkit on forming and running owners’ associations designed to help tenement flat owners work together to keep their buildings in good repair.
We often hear from flat owners that working together is the hardest part of the common repairs process. It can be difficult just to get in touch with neighbours, let alone organise meetings, hold votes, and make decisions in a fair and democratic way.
Written by Dr Iain Cairns and Emma Miller of Strathclyde University, this toolkit contains useful information on how to apply knowledge, reasoning, communication, and interpersonal skills to the common repairs process in your building.
From your very first in-person interaction with your neighbours, to forming an owners’ association, or organising complex projects together, this toolkit is full of helpful examples and tips to help you work better with uncooperative neighbours.
Please fill in the survey below – once you have, a download link for the toolkit will appear.

Why are we asking for this information?
Under One Roof is building a first-of-its-kind database of owners’ associations across Scotland. This database will help us share examples and data with politicians and the wider public so we can better make the case for why flat owners need more support. With this information (and with your permission to contact you) our charity will also be able to immediately send updates on financial support, legislative changes, and other resources that will help you and your fellow owners with building maintenance, repair, and retrofit.
