A neighbour's chimney stack was badly damaged in the storms just after Christmas.I went round to tell them as I think they can't see from their garden. Their English was very limited so I talked to the letting agent for them but still nothing has been dome.

I think one more bad storm might bring the stack down

I don't know if I'm only poking my nose in, or if there's something more I can do to help

Has anyone any suggestions?

If the landlord is not available (this is a period when people are away) there is not a lot anyone can do about it; the tenant cannot instruct constructional works and if the letting agents are not also being paid to manage the tenancy their hands are tied as well. If the building is reported and declared unsafe then the tenants are homeless. Bit of a quandary.

    • Campfire on from about 7pm on Fridays - pop along and join me - I always have some Small Beer available. 
    • Thanks. I dropped off the books that I thought would be most helpful for them already this week.  Thanks for the advice. I have advertised the ones that may be of use for studies on this forum then dropped off some at Oxfam in Herne Hill and others at the Bell End House book exchange. Still a few more to drop which I will likely give to Mind on LL who I like.
    • I wouldn't undervalue your expertise Bob.  When I occasionally have professionals around they always thank me for advice and don't mind the work taking twice the time.  One offered to treat me with an old fashioned sixpence to go to the flicks and go away.  Although even the Plex isn't that cheap.
    • St Christopher's on LL I'd list them for free as well on this website.
