SPS Garage Management

The garage management service exclusively for social landlords 

We help housing associations and local authorities turn under-used garages into £multi-million community assets.

Since 2008, we’ve refurbished, re-let and managed 15,000 garages.

And raised over £10 million for our clients and their communities.

About us

Garage management wasn’t something that we were particularly good at. We just weren’t set up for it. So we turned to SPS, and really like what they do. We’ve seen revenue increasing month-on-month, and for the year 2020/21, we hit the million pound mark for the first time.

Good for you. Good for the people you serve.

As a social landlord, you’re here to provide housing people need.

But not just that. You want to support healthy, happy communities. Which aren’t blighted by crime or derelict buildings.

But your time, focus and resources are limited.

It’s hard to achieve your goals, we know that. So let’s make things just a little easier.

We’ll take on your problem garages. So you can focus on what you do best.

Rundown garages are bad for you, your tenants and your community.

Attracting crime and anti-social behaviour. Damaging your reputation. And meaning you have to spend too much time dealing with complaints.

What’s more, you’re missing out on revenue.

And your potential garage tenants are missing out on the parking and storage they need.

Who we are: our core team of 3

We came together because we could see that social landlords had a clear need: community-based, revenue-driving garage management.

Our core team of 3 directors has decades of experience in social housing, property and business.

All supported by a broader team of tenancy managers and local offices. Who make sure all our tenants get hands-on support and quick responses whenever they need help.
