An update, landlady been, says we have adequate heating, even though she did finally admit one in front room now warm at all, she said she will send a plumber round in about 2 weeks time, & if it needs new boiler or anything like that we have to wait til april when she can afford it
she said house feels warm, she had thick coat on & i pointed out not turned heating off for days now, but when it gets dark house gets colder, she said then its prob to find somewhere else to live after contract runs out in april, if we want to leave earlier then she was happy with that as well
I just stood & cried my eyes out, by nearly 2yr old came crying to me holding me tight, I was wearing a dress with cardigan, she said it cant be that cold if your not wearing tights or anything, i was gobsmacked, i pointed out to her my clothes are in the washing machine been washed as ive been wearing same jumpers all week to stay warm..
If we get kicked out i dont want to end up in a bedsit/flat or put on a horrible estate, my elderly mum is around the corner from me, & i dont have £1500 to move again just like that

why our we been punished?,

I can't help you other than to say contact citizen advice, you have rights. Your health is the utmost priority, you need heating. Write everything down that has happened and take it to citizens advice. Good luck with your case, if I was in Lincoln I'd at least drop you some heaters off.

Anybody near Lincoln guys?

 

[michael c]

lets try find someone

 

[michael c]

just posted a request for a local engineer to help you debbie. I notice you said before you have a gas fire but dont feel safe using it. You can get a card type carbon monoxide detector which will last 3 months from places like b and q four a few quid.

 

[tom609]

nothing like witholding your rent to get it sorted quicker

 

[Guest123]

Somebody must live near this poor lass. Can't someone pop round at the very least to give her some advice on the problem so that she can tell her landlord? Who knows, you'll probably end up with the job if you diagnosed the problem for them in the first place.

Come on guys...... :yes:

 

[villa_tom]

It's be nice of it could get sorted but I don't think I've ever seen anyone in here from Lincoln, I don't even know where it is so not sure who may live near it.

 

[REDSAW]

call the hse asap and they will send someone around to asses the property for every fault discreetly.
the faults they find will be recorded then they will give the landlord 2 weeks to rectify them or charge them to put contractors in to sort.

they dont mess about.
my niece rents from my uncle and she called the hse in and all works done as they have to commit to an agreement.

dont spare the l.l thoughts as they dont care!!

 

[SimonG]

I'm sure Croft is from that area.

 

[ashby colin]

The radiator in our front room is on 8mm and even I as a plumber in my own house am unable to balance it properly. Been meaning to re-pipe it in 15mm but like the rest of those jobs I don't get paid for working on my own house!
