Council took 69 days to fit a kitchen and it's still not done..
I need some advice..
Lewisham Council told me new kitchen and bathroom refit in my home would take 13 days..
A mind numbing 69 days later they are still nowhere near to being finished! This is despite having easily in total 30 various so called 'professional skilled tradesmen' invade my quiet peaceful abode and practically destroy my life..
Some of their workers have been incredibly rude, and disrespectful, I have even been threatened and assaulted by one resulting in me having to call the police and file an official complaint and be issued a crime number.
Their workers have damaged and even outright destroyed my personal property and not at any time have I ever received any kind of written or formal apology from the contractors doing the work or the council.
I specifically asked Lewisham Homes to tell this company to only send a couple of workers that I kind of TRUST to continue the work in my home as after all the stress and then the assault I don't want all these strangers in my home. The council said they would respect this. Yesterday I counted at least 10 individuals coming and going in and out of my tiny flat.
You have to remember that this is just a small one bedroom flat, with my living room, bedroom, bathroom and corridor cluttered and packed to the hilt and all my possessions scattered everywhere across every bit of floor space there is no where for me to escape this stress and noise and traffic. I find myself just pacing up and down the outside landing like a mad cat for the entire day not eating and not being able to relax at all.
Because of this constant mess and disturbance from 8am to 5pm five days a week for the last 9 weeks I have hardly able to even prepare and cook proper food and all the fresh produce and fruit and veg in my fridge etc is going bad and being spoiled. I am 90% vegetarian and so eat 5 times a day. in the last 9 weeks due
to this constant work I have been eating just once a day. As a result I have lost over 16 pounds in weight during this period due to not being able to have any normal life or peace in my home.
It's absolutely shocking what's happening and what I am being put through. My entire life has been turned upside down and I am under such levels of stress it's making me ill.. I feel I'm going to lose my mind. My doctor is very worried about how this stress is affecting my mental health.
All the work is having to be done and redone and redone again.. the quality of the work is just appalling. It's simply unbelievable. They are so bad that they themselves have ruined and destroyed TWO whole brand new kitchen they fitted. Now they want to try again and fit a third.
They have breached health and safety codes and broken fire code regulations, they have left my home in an unsafe dangerous state causing me to have multiple accidents, they have damaged and destroyed my personal property.. and they have severely affected my mental and physical health.
I have documented the whole unbelievable sorry story here...
