This damp caused me the loss of enjoyment of my flat and damage to most of my personal
property at no fault of my own again I must stress and I had to have a machine in my
bedroom to remove the water before and after the contractors started the important works.
The well needed Industrial water removal machine to dry out flat got installed right away, the
only time I got allowed into the bedroom was to empty the bucket of water the machine
collected that did, in the beginning, fill up many times a day, as the months continued to pass
by the amount of unneeded stored water became less and less, right up until the council and
the Enfield homes reasonable persons where able to start the needed work.
By this time the initial problem of cause for the damp had gotten documented to be because
of bad ventilation within the estates premises around the year of 2007 and as a resolution to
the problem an air ventilation system got agreed to get adapted to the premises, the works
involved in the installation of this air system meant that I had to have large circular holes cut
into my kitchen window that leads to my back garden and that of my bathroom window that
leads to the main street, the hardware to the ventilation system got delayed to get installed for
a much longer time frame than anticipated in fact it took another two or three years later in
the year of 2010, leaving my home insured and this happened at no fault of my own yet
again, I got left with holes in my windows.
Even low the flat stayed in an unliveable state of condition through the years of 2006 till
2008 I got made to live in my flat, and after some of the disrepair issues got fixed with the
walls and ceilings inside of my flat continued to suffer from the damp issues due to the
floorboards going rotten after the first repairs, causing sinking floors and this once again
made the flat unliveable due to the dangerous risks involved from the year 2008 till 2010.
I had no flooring laid down in my bedroom as you walked into the room for a long time in
between these years because my feet had fallen through the wooden floorboard.
In this time frame, my heating boiler started to also give me lots of issues and the council
replaced the main board more than once.

At the end of 2008 when the damp floorboards got lifted up in my bedroom I suffered the
floorboards in the bathroom getting lifted up and afterwards not laid back down correctly in a
timely and safe manner, I got told I could not get allowed back into to my bedroom but the
bathroom was ok to enter.
The reason that the floorboards could not get re-laid in my bedroom and bathroom was
because the bedroom radiator pipe leads to the other radiator in the bathroom, this is because
they both share a u bend under the floorboards into each other and the radiators are on
opposite sides of the wall from one and other!
The metal pipe had fractured under the floorboards causing each room to flood not noticeably
since I moved into my home, until detected.
This error caused me to lose water pressure in my boiler system, so this leaking water added
to the damp issues
when after noticed another survivor came out to my address to oversee the problem and
agreed for a new heating system to get installed through the flat and order for the system to
get decommissioned, so for the flat to be ready for the new installation, with an addition of a
temporary peace of wooding for the floor to get laid, as by this stage I got left with no floor
boards in the bathroom and bedroom inclusive of no working heating apparatus as intended to
get fixed and fitted and holes in my kitchen window a bathroom window and a water
collection machine.
No reasonable persons attended again for months until many more complaints went in again.
And a person attended and laid temporary flooring!
This lack of organisation on the Councils behalf and their subcontractors caused me to suffer.
