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.

I want them to either do something meaningful with our money or not to waste it- my suspicion is that the current works are a waste of time and money as they do not go far enough, so I’d prefer they didn’t do them at all (too late now however) or, do them to a standard that has some meaning.

I hear you, but I think you have to figure out why they didn’t choose the ‘do nothing option’.

Part of it will be the fact that they take a margin on the overall project cost so are incentivised to inflate it, but there might be some reason in the regs to do it as well?
