We've got some scaffolding up outside our house at the moment as our front wall is being replastered and repainted. It's long overdue. It went up last week but nothing seemed to happen, as is the way with most things our landlord does.
However on Monday we got home to find work had begun and a lot of plaster had been removed. Being worried about thieves using the scaffolding to climb into our house we had locked all our windows from the inside. So we were quite pissed to find someone had come into our flat and opened them.
Tuesday... same thing but in the bedroom this time. It made me feel physically sick. It breaks our tenancy agreement for 24 hours notice before coming into our flat.
So I've booked three days off work from today and am at home, unable to relax completely wondering if the workmen are going to come barging through our door as they don't know I'm here. Grr.... But I can't wait to see their faces if they do.
Do please keep us up to date on what happened here. How did the workmen get keys for instance? From your landlord?
ReplyDeleteYeah, landlord would have given them to 'em. Jim was sitting in our front room a couple of weeks ago when a plumber walked straight in after giving a brief, unanswered knock.
ReplyDeleteOur landlord is a nice bloke... I just don't think he quite comprehends the idea of privacy!
