The photos below show some of the issues we found with the house, some issues being repaired and how they looked after being "repaired" unfortunaltley I havent taken photos of all the issues we found therefore the photos here are only a sample of some of the issues we have come across:

External Finish
Garden / Garage Flooding
Internal Finish

Back door (missing step)

Brickwork

Eaves

Extractor Vent

Gap in foundation

This gap I discovered behind our gas box, wimpey say there is a lintel bridging the gap but that does account for the fact the gap gives small animal e.g. RATS access to cavitiy and easy access to the inside of the house. Also it's difficult to spot in the photo but the block which the brickwork is built on is a thermalite block not a concrete block

Living Room Window Ledge

Ridge caps on low level roof

Weep Vents

Garden / Garage Drainage Problems









These pictures are of my kitchen floor when the water was approximatley 6 inches deep in the back garden it started coming through the back door into the kitchen. Unfortunatley the battery on the camera was drained and we never got photos of the pool in the garden. Because of the floor in the kitchen it is a bit difficult to see the water in the photos
