sent many different visiting surveyors to get the emergency graded problems fixed, but to my
dissatisfaction and lack of safety the problems never got fixed in a fair time scale and the
damp continued to happen to my home, me and my property and without any fault of my
own.
Somehow the emergency raised issues took the Enfield Council and the Enfield Homes a
couple of years to get mostly rectified and after an upsetting while disappointing semi
completion date of the year of
2008
In the year of
2008
the walls in my bedroom and front room got repaired and this meant that the walls got taken
back to brick and re-repasted. In the time frame while the announced agriculture work took
place to rectify the damp issues within my rented home by the Enfield Council and their
subcontracted staff the damp caused me the loss of the enjoyment of my flat and also caused
damage to most of my personal property. This occurred at no fault of my own,
“I still continue to stress while explaining even now what happened to me.”
I suffered with bad health that got caused by other people’s negligence and the reason partly
being for this bad health was because of the time frame the damp was left to grow un treated
by professionals and I also continued to suffer because my flat became a work site.
Due to the site works taking place in my home I had to have an industrial machine called a
humidifier, placed into my bedroom and this was to remove the water that had built up in the
internal and external walls of the building.
In
2007
what was a year prior of myself signing into a mutual contract with my landlords for rented
accommodation I found myself living in a damp and toxic hell? With I not being able be to
live inside of my new home Safely and Happily.
This damp flat meant that the only time I got allowed into my bedroom was to empty a
bucket of water that the humidifier “machine” collected, I can remember that in the beginning
of the machine getting placed inside of my bedroom that the water bucket for the humidifier
used to fill up many times a day, on an average of three times a day and I also noticed that as
the months continued to pass by the amount of unneeded stored water became less and less, I
do reminisce on this time as I had to manage to maintain the machine myself and found this
hard to achieve, aloe I did without any major incidents, this meant that I had to always be
present at certain times of the day to complete this job and this was right up until the council
and the Enfield homes reasonable persons where able to finally start their works.
From the start of the initial disrepair problem the cause for the damp got documented by the
Enfield council's’ staff to have occurred because of bad ventilation within the estate’s
premises, this information got noted in the year of
2007
and as a resolution to the problem an air ventilation system got agreed to get installed and so,
adapted to the premises.
The works involved in the installation of this air system meant that I had to have some large
circular holes cut into my windows of my home and this included my kitchen window that
leads to my back garden and that of the same to my bathroom window that leads into the
main street, the hardware needed for the ventilation system got delayed by the Enfield
Council's contractors, so that the ventilation system never got completely installed for a much
longer time frame than anticipated, in fact it took three years later in the year of
2010
