LL refused to use the DPS adjudication process. Next step is small claims court. How do i do this? IMO him not willing to use the Adjudication process speaks volumes to me. (He knows he will lose) i think he is just trying to make things as hard as possible for me. I doubt he would even...

Thanks for the replies. Indeed, I'm looking forward to receiving it.

as some of you may remember i had alot of trouble with my landlord not being willing to carry out necessary work on the flat we were renting from him. well 2 months after moving out. you guessed it. hes disputing our deposit being returned to us. please see below. any advice would be...

was on my phone at the time.

What's the best way to cure squeaky floorboards?

well, its a house conversion. we have a "normal" front door lets say. then it leads upstairs to our living area.

hi my front door lets in a draft underneath and slightly around one of the edges (the oposite side to the hindges) how can i try to prevent this or limit it as much as possible? i live in a house conversion upstairs and it gets really cold from the draft. someone has actually slotted a...

basically the guy who fitted it said to fill it up again between 1-2 bar at the filling loop. to which ive done. i am keeping an eye on it for now and seeing how it goes. yes we are worried about a disputed deposit and we have kept a record fortunately of everything the landlord has (or...

Hi its dropped to 0 again already

Ok but what about using hot water and heating?

We finally got the boiler fixed but not by landlord, council sent in a contractor and invoiced him. Boiler pressure returns o 0 after heating is shut off but when heating is on rises to about 1-1.5. Is it normal for pressure to drop this low? Sorry just worried that's all. Don't want any more...

weve asked him several times but have not received it. we are logging as much as we can. his "engineer" just came round and looked at the boiler for 2minutes and told me hes going to get gas safe round as he doesnt know what else to do with it. (although he is gas safe registered so it doesnt...

thanks for the replies guys. i will allow him entry tonight but have a feeling he will try to fob me off again. also yes we gave him a deposit and i believe he has registered it. we have contacted our council to find out for certain if he has or not as they will get an answer out of him...

Yes he did. Also I have received a message from landlord stating he is coming with an engineer tomorrow at 8am to try and diagnose the problem. My concern is that the eingeer will not be gas safe registered or he will bait them again on what to say. My other question is legally do I have...

i havent been there yet but i will do. thanks again for the input. much appreciated

ok thank you. we cant live like this but at the same time cannot afford a deposit for another place. we are also concerned he will provide a bad reference and hinder our chances.

the boiler is still not repaired and is infact worse. not fiering up at all only the odd chance. so we have no hot water or heating. spoke the land lord who said that if i call out an engineer its at my own expense. legally what can i do? i tried to report him to the gas safety register...

they do if the property is advertised as coming with what ever form of heating it may be. it also needs to be in a safe working condition.

Ok thank you. Thanks for your input.

Yes although unreliable and potentially dangerous. I.e. Not working how it should. It has shut off completely before for a week who's to say it won't do it again or die completely
