We are first floor so have concrete floors and ceilings. The original electrics were installed in conduits and then plastered in. We have no way of knowing where they go, how many corners, any junction boxes etc hidden that will make re-pulling them impossible. It's trade off between having...

In our case we have to pay a fee for the license to do works which is just I feel like a money grabbing exercise for admin work. Because we will be applying post works there is a surcharge on top of that. £150. Total cost including surcharge.

It's a local firm who specialise in conveyancing. I'm chasing them up today to make sure they've told Clarion that we will be the new owners.

I dont think so. The sparks want a week but said he can finish in 4 days at a push. The builder is going in at the same time to drop the ceilings and follow the sparks closing up and making good chasing and plaster the new ceilings. The ceiling drop is literally only 50mm so just 2" battening...

[B] The first highlighted bit is correct. The lease states we need written permission. The flat was built in the 60's and is the lease that previous work has been carried out under. Clarion have since taken control of the block. However...... Clarions own process has a designated section for...

This is the issue. The other flats in the block have had extensive work done, including re-wiring and room size alterations. This will be no different, I have absolutely no doubt that the license/permission will be granted either before or after works are done.......... Previous owners have...

Cheers mate. We've spent the last 6 months (yes it has taken that long since we put the offer in) looking at photos and floorplans and numerous visits to decide on furniture placement etc. We've gone over board on sockets to give us flexibility and to allow us to rearrange furniture etc and...

Evening all, I'm in dire need of some help please.... Myself and Mrs Spongy and due to complete on our first mortgage on friday. Its where we want to live and have been desperate to move back there. Its a 3 bed flat that is under the leaseholder Clarion. We got it cheap but it needed a...

My first thought too! Love it:lolol:

The bloke can't speak. His vocabulary is awful and you can physically hear the cogs crunching in his head when he's trying to say "yeah... but" and "you no wot I meen". Can't stand the twunt. IMO of course.

Absofeckinglutely.

Django and Pulp Fuction for me. Love them both and if they're both films that if I'm scrolling through on the TV and they're on I'll stop scrolling and watch it. Tried Hateful 8 a few times but always been on a Saturday evening after a home game. Never made it to the end. Longest I've lasted is...

I simply can't afford to get Covid. So far I've avoided it and intend to carry on doing so. It doesn't help that my company does not operate a sick pay policy, if you're off sick it's SSP. No matter what is wrong with you. Financially it would cripple me if one month my pay was halved. Half...

Started my new job the week before Xmas last year. Did that week fine. And had a 2 week break. Went back on the 4th Jan as normal. That night Boris announced lockdown. Went in the next day and got laid off as they were going back to furlough and and hadn't been there long enough to qualify for...

Paul Young only had a guitar collection worth £4k? Me thinks that be just one guitar....

That ****wit we loaned from Villa about 7 years ago. Gary Gardner. Pathetic excuse for a footballer.

When having lessons I was taught to feed it. Never understood it but doing that makes you slow down on junctions as if you go round one quick feeding the wheel you can't do it quick enough and run wide. I was also told that if you cross your hands and then collide with something, irrespective...

Don't feel bad on my behalf. Not your fault at all. Just got to me as was a familiar story that still rather raw. But the moral of the story is the most important thing here.

This has just really upset me. Don't rely on doctors appointments and check ups if you feel unwell then DEMAND to see a specialist and get yourself checked out properly. I lost my dad 1 month and 3 days ago to 3 tumours on the brain. 8 years ago my mum noticed a dodgy mole on his back but dad...
