Cladding Remediation Programme: factsheet
Information for homeowners and residents about the Cladding Remediation Programme.
Cladding Remediation Programme pilot
The pilot phase
The ‘pilot phase’ of the Programme began in 2021, and was designed to identify a range of buildings to help inform the development of the Single Building Assessment (SBA) process.
Pilot buildings that have already been assessed
Several buildings within the pilot have had completed some type of assessment prior to the SBA specification being in place.
This work now requires a ‘refresh’ to ensure it is in line with the SBA specification published June 2024.
This will not mean starting the assessment process again, as all existing information will be made available to the competent, qualified person carrying out the refresh.
Either the developer or Scottish Government will commission the refresh. A number of developers have already committed to refreshing assessments in line with the SBA specification. All SBAs must meet compliance and assurance standards, which we published in January 2025.
