| A lot of disrepair but not quite enough or bad enough to push into unfit,mostly external. |
|
1 |
| A lot of very ninor disrepair items. Central heating disrepair (boiler brokeb 5 years ago and not fixed probably means system has rusted up and needs complete replacement. Although heating provisionh is not unfit. |
|
1 |
| A number of significant defects none sufficiently serious to make unfit in their own right but collectively considered to be sriously defective. However, borderline unfit. |
|
1 |
| Aggregation of disrepair just sufficient to make property defective |
|
1 |
| Always some doubt when using a purely electrical design matter but not much doubt in this case really. Some disrepair but not enough to make up a convincing basket |
|
1 |
| An accumulation of defects are evident but not one by itself serious enough to warrant unfitness. |
|
1 |
| Bathroom fittings are satisfactory.Judgement made on condition of street wall finishes & walls are in hand. |
|
1 |
| Bathroom has condensation dampness with associated mould growth,on balance not pervasive enough to render unfit. |
|
1 |
| Bathroom is very small but difficult to justify "unfit" on size alone. |
|
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 decision. |
|
1 |
| Borderline defective - majority of disrepair minor but spalled lintels do require prompt attention plus multiplicity of non urgent items |
|
1 |
| Borderline fit on disrepair and dampness. Quite a lot of evidence of water penetration and resultant fabric disrepair but recent dry weather has probably minimised the actual impact of these defects. |
|
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 |
| Cooker is immediately adjacent, and at right - angles to sink and it therefore presents a very dangerous safely hazard. It is not immediately apparent how difficult it would be te rearrange the layout of kitchen fittings, inorder to re site cooker |
|
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 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 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 |
| Despite numerous defects the dwelling continues to provide reasonable accomodation in practice. |
|
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 |
| Evidence of penetrating damp to rear sitting room-flat roof covered with profiled metal sheets in apparent good order but householder reports penetrating damp occuring during very heavy rainfall. |
|
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 |
| Felt that extent of disrepair high-borderline fit |
|
1 |
| Fit on all items except disrepair. There were lots of disrepair items but all of them not particulary serious and more causing discomfort to the occupants. |
|
1 |
| Food preparation - Kitchen/living room door opens onto cooker position. Borderline unfit/defective. |
|
1 |
| Good house apart from need to ramp up wall & ceiling insulation & provide full CH.to deal with condensation & mould growth. |
|
1 |
| Heating - Electric installation for heating. Main living ok but bed 1 double socket located where an appliance would have to located in walkway area but only a 1 bed flat, modern electrics + mcb so good overload protection. Flat has smoke detectors. |
|
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 |
| House in reasonable condition - aspect for concern is missing balustrade (removed) from ground floor to 1st floor - only aspect of disrepair of concern. |
|
1 |
| I believe that as housing act filters standard, habitable rooms should be ventilated driect to outside air.Not everyone -eg.Building regs with regard to conservatory additions ,agrees.Also perhaps removal of now internal windows and doors would be .. |
|
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 |
| Inadequate permanent ventilation to heat producing appliance (BBU) as a result of new unventilated sealed external front door (Supervisor informed) |
|
1 |
| Kitchen being made fit. Work in progress |
|
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 |
| No balustrade to stairs and no handrail on wall but easily installed by a DIY handyman. |
|
1 |
| No details provided by surveyor |
|
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 other defects other than ventilation. Ventilation ok at first floor level. Some ventilation in kitchen - only living room with no ventilation. |
|
1 |
| No ventilation in kitchen - window/door open into conservatory. |

1 |
| Property in generally gd condtn. However orig balustrade removed by previous owner-fall hazard from ground-ff stairs 2.8m ceiling height. This 1 defect's therefore serious but only 1 defect in relation to 4 bed house-regarded as seriously defective. |

| Significant mould/condensation affecting all top floor rooms,worse in bathroom,not considered seriously defective but border line decision likely to be considerably worse during winter months. |
|
1 |
| 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 doubt over whether extent of condensation is exacerbated by tenants lifestyle |
|
1 |
| Structural - am just not sure of extent of problem: crack up front right wall. tell tales appears broken but at high level - others lower down removed - not present at time of inspection |
|
1 |
| Subjective decision on cooker location. No adjacent worktops and close to back door. |
|
1 |
| Subjective judgement on disrepair however all windows do not seal properly. At the time of survey boiler was partly out due to be replaced by council. |

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 condensation/severe mould growth could be cured by better ventilation & more use of the heating system but fuel cost too much for tenants. |
|
1 |
| The only w.c. is at the top of the stairs. The wash hand basin is accessed via walking through the kitchen!! Passing food preparation area. |
|
1 |
| The original windows are all in various stages of disrepair and decay, some more than others |
|
1 |
| The property is generally in good order. However the dining room to the rear of the ground floor opens into a conservatory viia a pair of patio doors. The conservatory os single glazed only and has limited ventilation. |
|
1 |
| There are some areas of work surface that is usable |
|
1 |
| There is a fault to the felt roof covering to the flat roofed section of the main part. The fault is not causing dampness but is likely to deteriorate unless rectified quickly |
|
1 |
| There is disrepair to all areas, but the stairs are dangerous and need replacement, otherwise no repair is urgent. |
|
1 |
| There is no ventilation to lounge. This is part of the work to be carried out to complete the building. |
|
1 |
| There is separate access to the kitchen from the hall. |
|
1 |
| There is significant dampness to the rear wall of the structure which adjoins the rear elevation -brick walls (probably 100mm) with polycarbonate roof. External ground level is >1m above floor level. Not habitable room although refrigerator kept here |
|
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 |
| To my mind a 2nd surveyor may feel that having a WC & WHB on different floors does not make the property unsuitable for occupation on this 1 assessment. |
|
1 |
| Unable to assess if ventilation is sufficient to stack vent. Lighting defects may be defective bulbs and switches and therefore easily remedied. |
|
1 |
| Unfit only on cooking provision. Kitchen could be remodelled if old inter-connecting door built up and kitchen refitted |
|
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. |

| W/C on own compartment at rear of back addition, WHB in bathroom which is the other side of the kitchen, but on same level. Not clear cut because have to go through kitchen to get to bathroom. |
|
1 |
| WHB is in 2nd bedroom (next to bathroom) |
|
1 |
| Well,the occupier (the man in the street) clearly did not think that totally enclosing a small kitchen would render their house unsuitable for human habitation.Diff install extractor system. |
|
1 |
| Whilst roof not leaking. Many slates have slipped & been temp refixed. Owner applied for a grant but wont be eligible for three(3) years. Will therefore have to wait to replace roof. |

|
1 |

|
1 |
| kitchen layout with position of gas cooker near back door and oppersite the dining room and back of work surface makes it borderline for fitness |

1 |

| main living room comprisers of front and back rooms made into one/kitchen extension has been added the rear of building licience natural ventillation to living area natural lighting also affected. some doubt as to wheither this is sufficient to |
|
1 |
| main problem dampness,could be high occupation(7occupants) window kept shut etc. drainage-concern on concrete gutter system but cannot inspect inner surface |
|
1 |
| majority of dampness located in first floor front bedroom. only small patches of dampness throughout the rest of house. two alternative bedrooms washable |
|
1 |
| most of the accumilated disrepair is to the outside of the dwelling.As the living room is not used much by the occupiers the lack of ventilation does not have a noticeable affect.A law could be made therefore the dwelling may be reasonably suitableo |

|
1 |
| no provision for cooker and worktops 500mm |
|
1 |
| not clear cut because although bathrooms is separated from kitchen by a door,has good mechanical ventiltion& a whb & has just enough room, but combined with its location is very far from ideal |
|
1 |
| not clear if not functioning roof draining in this instance is having significant effect onthe whole house-no signs of problems inside resulting |
|
1 |
| not sure of extent of dampness. both bedrooms and bathroom ok dampness in diner and all along hall wall only |
|
1 |
| nsure of the extent of corrosion in frame. Kitchen layout - cooker next todoor-possibly coild be moved slightly to reduce risk |
|
1 |
| number of items of disrepair, none serious disrepair in their own right. consedered borderline unfit |
|
1 |
| numerous items of disrepair. but a lot of the work outside, condensation not quite bad enough as unfit alone but add to disrepair |
|
1 |
| occupant informed me drains /sewers keep blocking due to way they were initially laid falls and bends leading to blockage dont have enough information to say whether clear cut or not |
|
1 |
| occupier describes wholesale condensation as external wall surfaces not evident on day of inspection irrespective extensive disrepair renders the house defective |
|
1 |
| occupier state wiring not rememed since they moved there 48years ago. some evidence of lectrical installation being checked over. light switches and sockets renewed but some original lighting pendants.. |
|
1 |
| only small patch of burnt worktop |

1 |
| only wc on ground floor accessed from hallway.hwb at first floor level and household likely to use kitchen,sink located very near wc. |
|
1 |
| original electrics but appear t&e, has some earthing, switch fuse. Insufficient sockets for modern living. May be one socket with rubber cable- but no obvious signs overloading ie no burn mark to sockets |
|
1 |
| patches of damp through out the property. two ofthe first floor rooms not used and this may explain some of the damp(condensation/closed spaces). damp not extensive but lots of isolated patches |
|
1 |
| pen. dampness to kitchen from leak in flat above + pen. dampness affecting main bedroom and bathroom/wc due to poss. blocked sev pipe-borderline unfir likely to get worse if not actioned. |

| plumbing in progress-whb in bathroom not plumbed in |
|
1 |
| poor layout of kitchen - colue be unfit. cooker next to rear door. |
|
1 |
| position of cooker adj. door to kitchen is dangerous-with one person living at home this is not as dangerous as a family with children |
|
1 |
| property has whb in gf bathroom,although wc is on first floor.fairly good prospect that whb would be used and not sink after using wc |
|
1 |
| property immaculate kitchen has a door open to outside air.never the less 3 main rooms have no natural ventilation direct to outside airby window means |
|
1 |
| quite a lot of disrepair but all minor |
|
1 |
| quite a lot of disrepair but not quite enough to make unfit |
|
1 |
| quite alot of disrepair particularly to interior of dwelling.none of disrepair serious in its own right and collectively considered to be just fit on disrepair grounds.border line decision |
|
1 |
| recurring septic tank blockages and mal function. when water table is high. dwelling could be degmed (no easy remedy) to be defective or acceptable |
|
1 |
| refer to section l9 |
|
1 |
| refurnbishment due in the next 3 months,assumed to include roof,windows-not seriously affecting occupants |
|
1 |
| relatively united mould growth in bathroom - but very exposed 41/2" wall (high heat loss) could give severe conditions in winter but does have radiator and extractor. Possible bridged DPC. |
|
1 |
| repair to kitchen cupboards &work surface did not make kitchen unusavle or unhygenic to point of unfitness.Disrepair to windows&fabric not urgent.windows can still be opened and fabric disrepair not severe enough to make unfit |
|
1 |
| rising and penertrating damp to kitchen not quite severe enough to make unfit |
|
1 |
| rotted timber floors to hall,living room & hall-very cramped kitchen&obs of light&vent by conservatory with part solid roof & ltd ventilation. |

| seems on paper that disrepair,dampness & drainage ought to be enough but none impacts sufficiently.dampness is condensation/mould in 3rd(disused) bedroom from a cold bridge.minor gutter probs not causing any inside effects.none of the disrepair |
|
1 |
| serious condensation in bathroom not quite bad enough to make unfit. Ventilation is bad with sealed openings. |
|
1 |
| serious condensation problem with extensive mould growths condensation aggravated by tennants lifestyle |
|
1 |
| several items in disrepair basket, but house is warm dry well heated and ventillated all amenties and the defects are at the moment probably not having any significant effect on occupiers health. see note |
|
1 |
| slipped and mising tiles fom roof but not causing internal dampness |
|
1 |
| small amount of wall tiling in kitchen and bathroom would solve |
|
1 |
| some evidence on external assessment of failure of front wall ties but no access to first floor to check if affecting stability of first floor,ceilings in ground floor are cracked |
|
1 |
| some ingress of water to bathroom - could be considered unfit but easily remedied - replace slipped tile. |
|
1 |
| structual stability - right wall bulging at first floor ceiling level. no obvious cracking so just dont know extent of problem - decison not clear cut. |
|
1 |
| structual stability based on cumulative items - only one problem suggests imminent danger (stack) & would require further advice on its structual danger at present. |
|
1 |
| structure movement corner of rear wall and passage wall.Appears to be ongoing with displacement of brick course appearing likely to lead to instability problem medium term.Bordering unfit. |
|
1 |
| tenant says waste leaks,has disconnected,hence sink unstable, waste is not connected to waste pipe. however the trapped waste and connections are relatively modern plastic, it appears that simply purchase new fitment,rubber seal will make repairable. |

| th e building has rising damp problems across the ground floor,the worst of this problem is located in th kitchen with a small amount in the living room. also penetrating damp noted in the bathroom. if the damp issue were worse in the living areas |
|
1 |
| the additional drainage at rear of house runs along surface with plastic protection & no access points-some evidence of damp at connection to existing. |
|
1 |
| the bath is original and has small areas of the surface worn away(covered by shower mat) |
|
1 |
| the opening lights of the living room amd kitchen have been removed following a burglary. There are no gas appliances in property, no evidence of condensation. Repair not easily achieved as in nailed up windows |
|
1 |
| the property is a one bedroom house and the size of the kitchen reflects this. there is a single occupant who has moved the cooker to a dangerous position. questionable with it is unreasonable for occupation in this condition |
|
1 |
| the roof on one side is built on unsuppoting wall &bulider has put in additional props-unclear without st.eng as to adequacy |
|
1 |
| the wc compartment does not directly communicate with kitchen but is proximate to the kitchen and contains no basin for hand washing |
|
1 |
| there is a problem with drainage in the area due to pitch fibre pipes collapse but the cause of the recurring problem at this property is not known. |
|
1 |
| there is an accumilation of disrepair and minor penative dampness.however the location and extent of it does lead to consider tthat the dwelling is reasonable unsuitable of occupation |
|
1 |
| there is more than a shopping basket of disrepair but the house is so large unsure if it will make the whole house unfit. it will be possible to move in and not occupy defective areas. |
|
1 |
| there is only one small window (1m2 approx) to large kitchen. window was only small of ? light.Both lighting & ventilation border on unfit because of this |
|
1 |
| two double glazed upvc windows to kitchen no opening casements completly sealed units so no natural ventilation to kitchen inadequate appliance ventilation.however external door would provide some form of ventilation |
|
1 |
| two of the three bedrooms (including one that is currently being used as main bedroom)are totally enclosed by a substantial ds conservatory.Under kitchen standard coud be considered unfit as not easily reached,but i suspect many surveyors wold not-he |

| w.h.b. is in ground floor bathroom,whereas w.c. is on first floor. however,due to the location of the w.h.b. there is a reasonable chance that it might be used for hand washing and not sink. |
|
1 |
| w/t present but of poor quality kitchen is useable but very dated and high level damp present |
|
1 |
| wash hand basin in premises, but only in ensuite bathroom, not in main family bathroom - bordeline unfit |
|
1 |
| wash hand basin is not in the bathroom/wc compartment but in the adjacent rear bedroom (bath used for hand washing) |
|
1 |
| water penetration en suits bathroom/flush moror joints trapping moisture esp rh elevation/windows repair/condesnation throughout house-reasons not totally clear but maybe lack of background ventilation/lack of heating |
|
1 |
| wc in bathroom heavily soiled incapable of being effectively cleaned.external wc also exists but seat in disrepair.seems a bit harsh to fail whole house on these 2 items alone |
|
1 |
| wc located downstairs with no wash hand basin suitably located |
|
1 |
| work in progress - small area of removed tiling will be completed shortly |
