22 North Gardner Street, Partick Eastkelvindale, Glasgow, G11 5BT

The property looked great upon first viewing but when we moved in there was a mountain of issues. The kitchen wiring was over loaded which caused blackouts and eventually the fridge to blow up. The fridge/freezer was never repair and was the final blow that made us move out which meant we went 6 weeks with nowhere to store fresh or frozen food. There was gaps in the fuse box, constant leaks, the boiler was referred to as prehistoric by a boiler engineer which in turn broke in the middle of winter and we where left with no heating for days and no hot water for weeks. When the blackouts started we found that the dishwasher and washing machine were connected to an outlet through using two extension cords, one directly under the sink and there had been a leak into these. Eventually an electrician came out and recommended a rewiring of the kitchen but the landlord, being cheap, opted to fit another outlet. This did not fix the problem. The house was damp, when we moved out I found boxes of my stuff coated in mould. The place was rammed full of unnecessary cheap furniture. The flat hadn’t been cleaned at all when we moved in with rotting meat in the fridge and they still slapped us with a cleaning bill when we left the place spotless in comparison. We cleaned the property after moving in and just asked that a cleaner be sent for the appliances. The cleaner just cleaned over what we had already done and never touched the appliances but since these agreements where all made over the phone we couldn’t “prove this” to get out of paying the cleaning bill. Mould in the bathroom caused by leak which took 2 months just to get someone out to fix the leak but never touched the mould. Tried to charge us for this but couldn’t.
