Reply to Temperamental Water Supply in Flat.

by slooky

hedges aside...LOL
We have a similar situation in our building. I spoke to severn trent and I was told that when the building was converted into flats each flat should have had a seperate supply. They were also confused because they said water meters should never have been fitted in each flat...

Temperamental Water Supply in Flat.

by dowdtw

Hi. I rent in London in a converted house which is now 4 separate flats.

We get temperamental water supply into our flat. This is caused when other flats within the converted block are using water. Sometimes, little water, other times none at all. We have approached the landlord...

Reply to Right to keep pets? Is hiding pets okay?

by alex1

Between 26 March and 13 May, it was illegal to view a residential property in England.

As originally enacted, regulation 6 of The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (England) Regulations 2020 made it illegal to leave one’s home without a reasonable excuse. Paragraph 2 of regulation...

Right to keep pets? Is hiding pets okay?

by Miloarchie2016

Hi guys, me and my partner moved into our first house last week, Within our tenancy agreement it stated that pets were allowed at the discrepancy of our landlord and that we needed written permission to keep pets.

Tenant handed keys back before court date

by river11

My tenant hasn't paid rent since February due to an accident and then Covid19 and I served a section 8 on 25 March. As the courts weren't touching anything for 3 months I've just paid the £325 via PCOL last week to start the possession proceedings and money claim for several £1000s.
I've been...

Reply to Temperamental Water Supply in Flat.

by jpkeates

I'm slightly confused.

The responsibility for the supplier for water pipes ends when the pipe comes onto your property.
I suspect that's where the stopcock is that they're talking about.

There's a stop cock next to the meter when the water comes under my border hedge....

previously - regularly turning stop cock prevents seizure, prevents winter floods in vacant properties and is particularly useful when working on the water system
In fact my AST's make a point of advising tenants where the main...

Reply to Conservatory/patio roof maintenance

by jpkeates

That article is a load of cr@p.

There's possibly a debate about the Denning text and it's possibly overdue another test case.
But that article is just page filler.

If it's made explicit in the tenancy agreement that does remove any confusion.
The tenant is agreeing...
