A Home MOT is as important as a MOT for your car or your health and neglecting the "must do" task to be done could lead to a very expensive exercise indeed!

 

Case Study

We were called to a house that developed gray fungi mould on all corners of the ceilings in the bedrooms. After a close inspection it was clear that the rain water from the gutters was seeping in to the house. The gutters had not been cleaned for a few years.

 

The result was as follows:

·     Edges of the roof had to be taken out to replace and strengthen the roof beams and rafters that had wet rot.

·     New fascia boards and guttering were installed as the original had completely rotted away.

·     All ceilings had to been taken down and replaced to get rid of the fungi

·     Painting and decorating

 

The client's insurers refused to pay as it was negligence not an accident.

 

 Total cost £4,500  however, to clean the gutters would have been a measly £150.00.
