2 | CLG | early 1960s | 2 storey | semi detached non trad house | In
the kitchen the plastic tiles have become unstuck due to rising damp
through the concrete sub-floor, and have also become brittle and broken
with age. In addition, there are unsealed joints around the service
entry points, and, because of the form of construction, potential
harbourage within the wall structure, although no current infestation. | C | Example 2 |
3 | CLG | 1970s | end maisinette 3rd 4th floor | 9 storey slab block o purpose built flats | Refuse
disposal sites are situated at the end of the block. These consist of a
hopper giving access to a chute which discharges into paladins in the
ground floor refuse store. The hopper on the third floor is broken, and
the chute is blocked, which has led to refuse building-up inside the
chute, and being left around the disposal point. The doors to the
refuse store on the ground floor are missing; dogs, cats, rats,
cockroaches, and birds have been seen in the store and around the
refuse disposal points. | D | Example 3 |
