Jeremy Bentham House

  • What is the condition of the roof? Does it need a pitched roof installed?
  • Does the block need cavity wall insulation?
  • Do the windows need renewing?
  • Is the security of the parking areas an issue?
  • Should the alleyways between blocks be secured with boundary fences and security gate entry systems?
  • Should all garden fences be of the same standard?
  • The majority of the block is leasehold. Do leaseholders want work kept to a minimum?
