Trend report: how many homes have had their cladding remediated?

The figures, for May 2024, show that 1,192 of the 2,149 social sector buildings being monitored by MHCLG are in a programme but remediation work has not yet started.

The statistics cover all buildings over 11 metres tall with unsafe cladding of various kinds being monitored by MHCLG.

Of those buildings taller than 18 metres with ACM cladding, remediation work has been completed on 82 per cent of social sector residential blocks and 79 per cent of those in the private sector.

Of the 132 high-rise social sector buildings where ACM remediation has been completed, the majority (125) were in the Social Sector ACM Cladding Remediation Fund. Of the 188 private sector blocks, 85 are funded by the government.

Of the 172 social sector blocks funded through the Building Safety Fund, which focuses on high-rise blocks with non-ACM cladding, 31 per cent have completed remediation, compared with 32 per cent of the 739 private sector residential ones.

The Cladding Safety Scheme, which focuses on buildings between 11 and 18 metres tall with ACM cladding and buildings over 18 metres tall outside London, has two buildings where works have started. The remaining 1,356 are between the pre-application and works delivery stages.

For developer-led remediation, 362 of 1,569 buildings identified as having life-critical fire safety risks had been completed by the end of April 2024.

There is some overlap between the various schemes, so the total number of buildings needing remediation does not equal the total of the schemes.
