I love being warm and wish I lived somewhere warmer and dryer than this, but we too have been lucky not to be flooded. We have had a minor problem with the roof following that Tuesday night with the horrendous storm but that has now been fixed. For a while I was soaking up water with towels around the area in the bathroom where the water was coming in! £850 worth of repair but hopefully we should be getting some of that back from the insurance. |
Bit of bad luck that Willow, but glad you got it sorted quickly. I'm lucky that way I live in a ground floor flat and if there are any problems HH sort them out. The only problem I had, which may affect other people who live in council or housing ass propeties are window breakages. Obviously I only have contents insurance which in most cases does not cover windows, I found that out to my cost when some drunk put my kitchen window in one Staturday night, I was not covered and it cost me £120, it was a double grazed unit. However I found out that as it was then HBC did a contents insurance, through Norwich Union, specially for councils which covers windows too, and its no different in price than what I was paying before and with the same coverage
