I have sent out a few messages but not had a response yet, so hoping some of you good folk may be able to help.

My flat has had some fairly severe water penetration following heavy rain, and it appears that this may have come through the wall due to some damaged brickwork. I need someone who is able to repair the brickwork (on the second floor) and address any apparent issues. I need this fairly urgently, but as I am in a different timezone, arranging this is difficult.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

- Damp cellar floor is it a problem
  
  By Bumpkin · Posted 24 minutes ago
  
  We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness. I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar. An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?

  Yeah, it did work out in the end, but it was way more stressful and expensive than it needed to be. He lost money. He had higher offers early on, but those buyers pulled out because of all the delays. On top of that, he spent a fortune on legal fees trying to get the neighbour to sign off on the freehold transfer. It dragged on for ages. In the end, he was lucky the final buyer stuck with it, but the price was lower, and the whole thing left a bad taste. A lesson learned. Share of freehold can be a real nightmare if the other owners aren’t cooperative. You’ve got to be 100 per cent sure everyone’s reasonable, otherwise it’s just not worth the hassle.
