Reply to New House Is Filthy and Scruffy

by philg

I would think they are jointly liable as they ahve not done what they have said and you are unhappy with it. it is not your responsibility , they should make it a nice place which is habitable . last year...

New House Is Filthy and Scruffy

by emkat11

Reply to Options if eviction ban is not lifted

by nukecad

Thanks jpkeates,

I was't sure at all how already having an existing PO and trying to start a new eviction process would work.
But suspected that it wouldn't work. or would cause problems.

Options if eviction ban is not lifted

by Perce

Hello All

Reply to Sink blocked for almost 3 weeks

by Codger

Usually heat is the best unblocker as it melts the fat. I get it dry then add boiling water from the kettle. But it wont melt candle wax.
most plumbers would dismantle a sink waste pipe if theycouldnot unblock it.
