I have a long running issue with reguards repairs, this problems has gone on for over 3 years. I have reported the repairs to the enviromental officer, over 12 months ago.
When I reported the repairs I was issued a section 21 notice to quit but this lapsed. Local villigers got involved and managed to stop the impending eviction. My landlords are the church of england.
On the 21st of December 2011 a property surveyer came to inspect the house on behalf of the landlord, he spent 5 hours inspecting.
I managed to get a copy of the report through the enviromental officer and found the property has many defects that include a roof in a bad state of disrepair, damp concreat floors, rising damp on all walls in the house, areas that are considered a fire risk, health and safty issues due to bathroom opening up directly next to food area, cess pit and drainage issues, rotten windows and a collapsed inglnook that has had to be propped. The list goes on and on.
I have serious health problems that can be directly linked to the conditions. Lung problems. We also have a small baby.
To me it seems that the council are dragging their feet about the issues. The cess pit, for instance has been ongoing since 2005 reported by the last tennants.

We can go on like this any longer and would like to here what others have to say about our issue. What can we do?
