Apparently all water using appliances were noted ...number of loo`s dishwasher washer etc

well it WAS stated that it was due to being able to burn coal. It WAS also stated that insulation was too old and required replacement. I accept that your reasoning is logical. BUT the guy doing the inspection DID say everything I posted, it is a family member who is not prone to either telling...

Just "cooking" the popcorn guys Still no real input......... ............only Scottish power feel the need to change meters and no one here smells a rat??????????

........and so would I if I had let it get that bad :wink:

Andy.......... You have "purchased vinyl" - but what did THEY advise you to do with your floor in preparation? If your "info" is correct then your floor needs levelling..... ..........how tight is money? ...........how "correct" do you want the job to be? Please answer the above...

No sorry you guys misunderstand.... why is Scottish power SUDDENLY fixated with paying out for new meters when no other company seems interested. (or at least 2 sets of customers in the same town) I wondered if it was some "master plan" to collect more dosh I also wonder what would...

sorry Daz - I beg to differ..... ........"stardrops" is just as good AND considerably cheaper!!!!!!! regular mopping equals :D regular "ignoring" equals :cry:

+ 1 to this advice

there are "liquid" DPC`s you can use....(before screeding) but as I said either do a "quick fix" as suggested OR get a PRO in. the reason for this is that they will (I hope) know what they are doing. they can/will advise you having actually "looked" at your floor. We can only advise based...

just replied in your post in the flooring section

Errr.......... if they are "Amtico" then you do NOT grout them Because they are plastic. They are a trade name for LVT or luxury vinyl tile. In the same way as Ford are a trade name for "cars" If they are dirty then clean them either with plain soap and water or if you are rich buy...

Well I was hoping someone here would give me a clue! I accept I cannot give you more info now. But if it would help I can go back and do so later. The meters in the cubbie are all as old as the building except hers which is a very small white digital one. my meter (electric) is very...

No - meters in our house and mums have no identifying marks "ownership wise" I accept that a meter MAY have a "finite life" BUT................ in mums property all the meters are in the same cubby hole - all 10 of them. 9 of them are seriously old - apart from mums Ours are quite...

Nope not estimated at all - they just seemed to pluck a future "usage" out of thin air and wanted to charge accordingly - her annual consumption has remained remarkably constant for over 5 years

Just after some info/thoughts.... Mum lives in an apartment, it is one of 10. Recently her supplier Scottish power informed her that her meter was past its best and needed changing (urgently she was told) This was done. Bills have since crept up, they are constantly trying to increase...

Of course one very obvious question.... you DID have new underlay I hope...... ....because if you didn`t then I am sorry but you can forget a complaint, any inspector will throw out such a claim EDIT - oops I note from your post 1 that you didn`t :cry: that could make things tricky :(

Steve.... your original post suggested that cash is tight. My response gave you a quick simple and cheap option. Now you seem hell bent on finding more problems (which will equal more cash!) either stop it immediately or get a pro in for advice :wink:

BUT unfortunately very necessary to sell (or in other words yet another stealth tax :evil: )

They are a con anyway mate of mine got "good marks" for having LED bulbs ...but "bad marks" for the open fire and for having enough loft insulation but of an old material bad marks firewise were due to being possible to burn coal!!!!!!!!!! ..........so what was to stop him...
