| Access not possible for adequate inspection erred on side of borderline fit but a second surveyor may have judged unfit. |
|
1 |
| According to the owner the drains to the rear garden block up & overflow intermittently. Another surveyor may think this sufficient to cause unfitness. |
|
1 |
| Although cooking location is adjacent to door leading to external - door does not actually strike cooker & door does seperate user from cooker - thius hazard is reduced |
|
1 |
| Am not happy with ventilation to kitchen/dining area - install mech. extractor fan to kitchen/diner. |
|
1 |
| An accumulation of defects are evident but not one by itself serious enough to warrant unfitness. |

| At the time of survey the module was undergoing a complete reroofing the structure was in place but a majority of the tiles were not present. The module was protected by a temporary roof , work in progress |

| Back addition roof - may not be ongoing. Penetrating damp - works in progress. Disrepair - insufficient items to class as unfit. |

| Bathroom has condensation dampness with associated mould growth,on balance not pervasive enough to render unfit. |
|
1 |
| Bbay belling situated on drop down worktop, not sure if could be easily remedied to take out portion of worktop & cupboard to fit cooker, or if necessary in a one bedroom flat/sheltered housing! |
|
1 |
| Borderline decision as to whether w/c location, which is in the bathroom but sited directly off the kitchen, makes property unfit. Decided that hands can easily be washed in w.h.b. and that this defect does not make house unfit to live in |
|
1 |
| Borderline fit - defects to above and below ground drainage systems. A second surveyor may have judged unfit. |
|
1 |
| Both bath and EHB still useable and so could have been classed as defective |
|
1 |
| Both in disrepair and needs renewal, however , is usable and in use. Disrepair will hinder cleaning. Seems a little harsh to fail house on this one item alone. |
|
1 |
| Collective disrepair to all areas through neglect & bad diy not immediate prejudical to health but needs corrective action in next 2-3 years. |
|
1 |
| Considerable rubbish & disrepair to paving,fence missing,slabs removed as a result of building works in progress & will be short term only. |
|
1 |
| Considered immediate harm as broken consumer vent cover has exposed live conductors - risk to health but relatively straight forward remedy - renew cover. |

| Could not determine if gas appliance was more than 7.5 kw so unfit decision is based on an assumption that it is class one gas appliance. |

| Dampness appears to be at low level and plaster not yet greatly affected (twice chemically injected!) Full extent not known. |
|
1 |
| Dampness caused by condensation is affecting all habitable rooms, kitchen & bathroom. Mould growth on external surfaces and to majority of ceiling & bathroom. Levels of mould growth to kitchen, bedroom & living room small; mostly down in comes under |

|
1 |
| Decided after further review that is not unfit, just defective as even cumulatively they do not make a property unreasonable or unsafe to live in |
|
1 |
| Decided defective mainly due to missing balustrade - could be considered unfit as potentially dangerous but I dont think so as it is easily remedied. |
|
1 |
| Defective as only access to bathroom is currently via a bedroom. This is due to be changed once renovations completed. There is an alternative WC & WHB available on ground floor. |
|
1 |
| Defective clear cut on cooker location by kitchen extension door, but Defective not clear cut on damp rising in 4 isolated points in living room - could therefore be unfit in but not in my opinion |
|
1 |
| Defective due to lack of hot water. Repair to hopefully be made in few days time. At survey time had no hot water for 10 days. Lack of hot water is prejudicial to health due to difficulty in cleansing body. Also risk to health in food preparation |
|
1 |
| Defective mainly due to interior fabric condtion |
|
1 |
| Defective on size of kitchen -oven door will not fully open-because of fridge/freezer.Draw also blocked by oven-but a small fridge may be more reasonable for this size of flat & would mitigate the problem. |
|
1 |
| Defective only due to lack of heating on 1st floor including bathroom and all other rooms except lounge/diner. |
|
1 |
| Defective roof covering (concrete tile) to whole block only issue to class property as defective |
|
1 |
| Detached brick built outbuilding showing signs of structural instability. Close proximity to rear addition poses a risk (slight?) to occupants/users of house. Borderline decision. |
|
1 |
| Disrepair to envelope of building due to lack of maintenance but borderline as to how affects survey flat. |
|
1 |
| Do not know extent to corrision of frame. Rear wall seems most affected, currently not unfit but needs investigation. |
|
1 |
| Door in kitchen opens onto cooker area. Large enough kitchen that could be rearranged. Cooker could be built in elsewhere. Would need builder. |
|
1 |
| Extensive disrepair to exterior, whole gable needs repointing. roof repairs - bulge at base of gable apex needs tying, windows on rear need attention. Bath badly worn enamel on cast iron bath. However: impact on health & safety does not make unfit. |
|
1 |
| Extent of rising dampness not clear (eg most of kitchen is dry lined and single brick construction) |
|
1 |
| External disrepair at defective level nut only just and not affecting fitness internally. also repairs are ongoing. |
|
1 |
| Felt that extent of disrepair high-borderline fit |
|
1 |
| Food Prep: Very small kitchen, however good use of space and in good condition. Not a through route o risk from hot surfaces minimised. Applying whole - house standard would make an unfitness judgement harsh. |
|
1 |
| Hazardous kitchen layout with kitchen adjacent to doorway - however hazard not extreme. Door does not strike cooker or user. |
|
1 |
| High external level nearly to DPC adjacent to rainwater down pipe and gully. (Internally adjacent to duct containing soil stack). Difficult to ascertain whether rising damp or penetrating damp. ..........cont. in paperclip note |
|
1 |
| Home is being totally refurbished to a good standard. There are other bathrooms in the home. |
|
1 |
| House has had new roof flashings etc & DPC is well heated & good bathroom & kitchen, fully rewired & plumbed. However boxroom lit only by one small high rooflight - has to be used because of family size but vent just OK as through vent off landing |
|
1 |
| I consider the kitchen to be of inadequate size to provide the necessary amenities-cupboards,worktops & cooker .others might come to a different conclusion no cooker point |
|
1 |
| Ill fitting doors, windows defective, but not many and an easy repair |
|
1 |
| In process of being refurbished, including repairs and heating system prior to being re let. |
|
1 |
| Inadequate permanent ventilation to heat producing appliance (BBU) as a result of new unventilated sealed external front door (Supervisor informed) |
|
1 |
| Isolated lintel failure,only reason for defective judgement. |
|
1 |
| KITCHEN IS ONLY BARE MINIMUM TO FITNESS STANDARD. EXTENSIVE DISPRPAIR INSIDE TO PLASTERING, ELECTRICS, ETC, BUT IS SATISFACTORY TO EXTERIOR |
|
1 |
| KITCHEN WORKSURFACES MISSING - BUT TABLE PROVIDED AND KITCHEN IS VERY LARGE OR WORKSURFACES COULD EASILY BE INSTALLED - WASHBASIN TO BATHROOM CRACKED BUT ALTERNATIVE WASHBASINS PROVIDED IN BEDROOMS. STAIRS NEED HANDRAIL - COULD EASILY BE PROVIDE |
|
1 |
| Kitchen door into kitchen opens inwards onto part of cooker - large range, two thirds outside door swing - but door has vision panels (though small children pay little heed - therefore questionable unfit. |
|
1 |
| Kitchen floor (cupboard got wet). Possibly long term leak. Floor structure lost integrity & become spongy & several holes in altro floor covering - survey been carried out & floor to be replaced under household insurance. |
|
1 |
| Kitchen has no worktop as it is and no space for one to be provided easily (or table) without carrying out work. |
|
1 |
| Kitchen units and worktops in poor condition require replacing but not quite unfit. These will be replaced this year by Bradford Housing Trust. |
|
1 |
| Kitchen very small and not enough space for 1m mr of work surface. Also cooker position relative to work: space is a hazard. Flat is one bedroom and for max 2 people, so not considered to be unfit on this basis. |
|
1 |
| Kitchen. Enclosed by double glazed conservatory. However, no solid door between kitchen and dining area - whiche is adequately ventilated. Mech extract fan necessary (not easy) to kitchen |
|
1 |
| Living room with gas fire has no ventilation. No grill vents on own birch. Conservatory to back |
|
1 |
| Lots of minor problems of disrepair & extreme untidiness which makes assesment difficult. |
|
1 |
| Majority of fitness items clear cut,but not clear cut on dampness.(Due to condensation),as it would depend on time of year surveying .Likely to be unfit during the colder months.(eg. winter period). |
|
1 |
| NB Utility built from stone slab walling (approx 2") of the rear yard party wall and timber panel - very poor construction |
|
1 |
| Naf ventilation- kitchen/diner- openablewindow area only 1/32 of floor area.(no extractor fan) main bedroom 1/39 of floor area. Other two bedrooms slightly under 1/20 not causing any obvious problems |
|
1 |
| No balustrade to stairs and no handrail on wall but easily installed by a DIY handyman. |
|
1 |
| No hot water to bathroom is only reason for unfitness. This is only means of washing the body - no shower facilities. Has been like this for several years. May be simple repair necessary. |
|
1 |
| No hot water to wash hand basin - only one wash hand basin. Some may say flat unfit as cannot cleanse hands sufficiently |
|
1 |
| Number of items of disrepair, none of them serious in their own right, but collectively close to making dwelling unfit. Dampness present but considered borderline fit. |

|
1 |
| Only one bedroom with damp penetration in corner (flat roof/soil pipe over) affecting 15% of ceiling 10% of wall. May be simple repair job. Heavy rain at time of survey but damp not very severe, could also move bed into living room |
|
1 |
| Original kitchen in place. Work surface completely broken up & unhygenic. Borderline unfit. |

| Property is only defective due to insufficient heating on 1st floor level & rear dining/kitchen area. |
|
1 |
| Property only fails on a technicality. Whilst WHB is provided, it is not close to W.C. Other than this this property is generally okay. Seems a bit harsh to fail property on this point alone, however, W.C. is closer to the kitchen than the WHB. |

| Slopping floors to 1st floor, overall amounts of disrepair eg cracked plaster to internal walls, and to the rear elevation render. Maybe unfit due to lack of sufficient heating eg no insulation, 2 room gas heaters only. (back lounge and dining room |
|
1 |
| Some substantial defects noted, but on the whole these are localised. Any further deterioration would be likely to merit an overall judgement of unfitness. |

1 |
| That property coming to end of refurbishment which involved areas of replastering , floor repairs. Bath/WC/WHB stripped out stored in other rooms for refitting. So not immediatley suitable for occupation, but refitting of amenities, (continued) . . . |
|
1 |
| The area behind first floor toilet is not capable of being cleaned, but could be made good without major works or expense. There are holes in the bathroom door. Door needs replacing only. |
|
1 |
| The bath has got sighnificant scratches and is just about cleanable but is close to becoming uncleanable, and will need replacing soon |
|
1 |
| The bath has previously been resurfaced twice. The coating has failed badly and the bath cannot be properly cleaned. |
|
1 |
| The house is in very good condition apart from inability to clean behind toilet . Minor work could cure this defect. |
|
1 |
| The kitchen has a 30 amp provision for a cooker but occupier does not have cooker due to space limitations in kitchen - instead she has got a washing machine & tumble dryer & uses a small 'one ring' type cooker on worksurface along with steamer! |
|
1 |
| There is hot water supply from the back boiler to a cylinder but no immersion. Therefore, have to have fire on to get hot water. Coded as a minor repair pm hot water to sink, bath, wash basin = total adds up to fitting an immersion heater |
|
1 |
| There is ingress of rainwater to the ceiling of both the top floor bedroom and the living area below it, presumably caused by a problem with the flat roof. The ingress is not serious as yet and is not enough to make the property unfit although |
|
1 |
| There is no WHB or intention to install inmain bathroom/wc , however, there is a whb in gound wc cloakroom |
|
1 |
| There is no ventilation to lounge. This is part of the work to be carried out to complete the building. |
|
1 |
| There is some movement in the house - don't know extent or if ongoing but I think so. Monitoring needed or someone who knows more about this than me! |
|
1 |
| There were a number of disrepair items,but due ti the size of the hiouse none caused too much inconvenience to the users. eg. the main bathroom was defective but there were 2 good ensuites and another wc. |
|
1 |
| Three grounds where believe defective clear cut. But in respect of food preparation - not cooker is situated immediately adjacent to outside door and entry/exit would interfere with user of cooker. As external door and limited use believe not unfit. |
|
1 |
| Unfitness decision rests on dampness. Mould/condensation pervasive to bathroom,but not damp at time of visit. Additional damp to kitchen. Possible that condensation to bathroom occurred during previous occupancy/lack of use of heating. |
