I bought a new build flat on the East Dulwich Estate from Southwark Council just over a year ago. After about 6 months I noticed that considerable gaps were appearing around the edges of the floor where there had been any weight, such as furniture or even objects that weren't too heavy like my computer. The gaps are where the floor meets the skirting board, in effect the floor has sunk around the edges. Also there are areas of unevenness across the floor. I went back to Southwark with this problem and they did nothing. I went through the CAB to raise a Stage 1 complaint. After a lot more correspondence and a couple of meetings it was suggested that they replace the beading to cover up the gaps with no further investigation offered as to what may be happening underneath the floor. Has anyone had similar experiences with these flats or has anyone advice to offer? Thanks.
