Of course if you are going to use a spray instead of paper then your metered water bill is going to go up.

Reply to How to resolve disrepair which is impacting my mental health

by Hudson01

I have a particular distain for conservatories, but that aside, if one is fitted then it should NOT leak, and if it does then the LL should have it fixed, if its a bit of polycarbonate nailed to a softwood frame then fair enough, that is NOT a conservatory, but if it resembles the '' Plastic temporary...

How to resolve disrepair which is impacting my mental health

by KevinB47

Hello

I have lived in my home for 2 years and the landlord is ignoring disrepair which I report to him directly.

In May 2022 I reported that every time it rains, the conservatory leaks in various places and the rainwater drips through and causes leaks on the floor.
I...

Some so called conservatories are really just greenhouses, and greenhouses are not necessarily designed to be waterproof.
If it has a concrete floor, and no electrics that might be what OP has.

I personally have one like this: https://www.robertdyas.co.uk/mercia-traditional-lea...

Reply to Anti Social Neighbour and potential Vermin problem

by Hudson01

Not strange at all in my world, its very common, the biggest issue is getting other residents to give a statement to either the Police or the council, they are very fearful or revenge attacks etc..... as an aside i can see this being the main issue with the new ' White Paper ' and its tackling of ASB...

Anti Social Neighbour and potential Vermin problem

by red_boots2

My tenant informed me yesterday she thought she'd seen a Rat or Mouse in the Kitchen, I only live 5 mins away and popped over to have a look. I couldn't see any entry/exit points or any signs of droppings, however behind the kickboards under the boiler pipes were some partially eaten Easter eggs and...
