TIMELINE OF EVENTS AND UPDATES



On 01-06-2011 at 11:56, a resident sent us the following e-mail:


I am writing to inform you of a loud noise which appears to be coming from the radiators/pipes of our maisonette (Goldthorpe). It has happened on 3 occasions: 10/05, 30/05 and 31/05 between 3 and 6am.

It sounds a bit like drilling and you can also hear the water sloshing through the radiator. The sound comes and goes lasting from a couple of minutes to about 20 minutes.

The radiators in our house are not switched on.

We are concerned as we do not know what is causing this noise and whether it has been reported before and if any actions are being taken to prevent it.

Thank you

Dear Mr Michael,

I have received the following attached e-mail form a resident in Goldthorpe. Could you please investigate and let us know the cause of the problem?

I thought that this problem had been fixed. Please advise.

Yours sincerely

I am out of the office and will return on 06/06/11. Please call 02079742046 for any emergencies.


On 06-06-2011 at 10:32, we received the following e-mail from Mr Richard Michael:


Dear Resident,

Mr Bowcutt attended the property last week and has advised the resident of the correct procedure for dealing with any faults on the heating system.

The resident has been given the Camden Housing Repairs contact details to report the fault if they feel there is a problem.

This will ensure that any faults are logged and the correct procedures are followed.

The student he spoke to in the property was not aware of a noise issue but one of the other students said that they had heard a noise.

When residents report faults they are given a Work Order number for which they can enquire for updates if required.

Richard Michael
Mechanical Contract Manager
Telephone: 0207 974 2048

Dear Mr Michael,

What was the cause of that radiators’ noise since the heating is off?

Has the radiators’ noise fixed on that flat in Goldthorpe and generally on the estate?

Please have in mind that the radiators’ noise was experienced by many residents on the whole estate including myself.

Yours sincerely
