Off Topic Rented house

That’s going to be around £5 a day plus the cost of heating it

 

I've used 79 cubic metres in 6 months

 

Wouldn't you be better off getting a mortgage ?

 

We get the keys to a new home tomorrow

 

Aye, saw you were moving.
Rent or mortgage ?

 

Bought, finally found something we can do up and our last home

I received a text, about 5.30 tonight from thew owner, said can I fix the leak and will reimburse me at a later date when he is out of his finical mess, I will show the text tomorrow

 

You pay first, then he'll reimburse you when he sorts out his financial mess

How old are you, Barney, 'cos he thinks that you were only born yesterday

 

I am 55 on saturday, 2 grown up lads, 1 a pro golfer, 1 a successful manager. Honestly hes thick as ****

 

No question mark after that? Shoddy!

 

His electric/gas/oil bill will be more of an issue if he’s losing 500 litres of hot water every day!!!

Edit Sorry Rooch hadn’t got to your seb post

 

My water bill’s only about £1/cubic meter and usage is about 60cu m/quarter. Are you sure you’ve got a hot water leak- perhaps you’ve just got “stealth” under-floor heating and no damp course

 

This is his text, and a sample of damp on wall and skirting's coming off wall

 

Are you sure it’s not the radiator system leaking?

 

Definitely not, had all checked

 

Can't remember the exact details but a mate of mine bought a house years ago and it was damp,
Ended up a brick shell, no plaster and the roof tiles visible from the ground floor

The previous owner had run a waste pipe into what he thought was another but was a vent for the suspended ground floor.
Something like .

My neighbour having bought the bungalow had extensive work done including extension and under floor heating.
Not long after the heating leaked and they had to dig his kitchen/extension floor up of expensive tiles to find it

Good luck with the move

 

Posting a letter today, along with what his legal obligations are, this will be fun
