the first salvo has gone in.Little moans about a light bulb not working in a bedroom.It was out 12 months ago,we have it written down on our copy of the inventory.Bedroom two a loose hinge on a crappy wardrobe again this was on the inventory and it had to be fixed so it could be used.So wear and tear should cover that.daek silicone around the top end of bath and around handbasin.Should have used mould resistant silicone ours has never turned dark seven years after it was put in.Toilet seat dirty i cleaned the bathroom,dust on the towel rail,i cleaned that with a damp cloth and multi purpose spray.It seems the dishwasher has not been washed down,the fridge or the microwave,are these people serious finally the two suites are grubby well they were dirty the kids had to put throws over them ,i saw them many times when i visited.
Anyway we have asked for names dates invoices of all work taken before our two took over said flat/apartment.No mention of the important parts the decorating.Sad thing is we are going to give the next landlord a right going over when we take on the next flat in Edinburgh,that poor sod is going to get the flack,we will check and turn everything over before we sign for anything,even the dust on the return of the windows i cleaned the flats and all of them were black filthy dust traps,cleaned never.We are so angry,well they have fight on their hands,i am with the GMB a life member and help is free.Watch this space oh and the bond is safe with a third party.
