Same here. It's happening now! Six months in scaffolding and counting. Got a new pane of double glazing today though, happy days.
Least they didn't regenerate the estate.
I suspect you'll have a reserve fund, whereas we and Rogan will probably not, which is kinda like getting left holding the baby. The good news for us is that the work is highly visible stuff (new communal stairwell, pointing, painting, lighting, doors, entryphone) which in theory should add value. And as we are on the top floor we got a new roof and reap the insulation and non-leaky benefits.

We were told that their were major works in the offing when we were looking at our flat - cladding the exterior (hopefully in a non-flammable material), which was (is) going to cost a lot. 8 years later and there's still no sign of it happening soon. It will happen, has to, eventually - but we may have sold the place having lived in it for ten years before it does.
