  • The managing agent has commissioned some works (with a section 20) to upgrade the ceilings and wiring in our block. Unbeknownst to us, that also means removing a couple of access doors (one for the electricity meter, the other for coal delivery (1930's block) with fire panel plasterboard to give a burn through time of 30 minutes.

    However, to do this they're removing the door (wood) and leaving the frame (also wood), and ignoring the front door (wood, in a wood frame). Strikes me that this is performative rather than genuine change, and it's costing us thousands of pounds. Am I being too cynical?

  • What do you want them to do - spend more and replace the frames and front door as well?

    Maybe they are trying to do the bare minimum to get building regs approval without “unnecessary” costs? I am sure some leaseholders would support that strategy.
