Poor value for money from L&Q

For a second consecutive year the grounds maintenance of our communal gardens has been abysmal, despite promises by the Estates Services Team that we will see improvements. Visits to my property are erratic so lawns and shrubs are overgrown with weeds, ivy, bindweed and moss. And I pay L&Q a service charge for this to be managed. A complete joke!

Loose flags on my drive that lead to my front door. Firstly said they didn't do this repair but its listed in the L&Q handbook. Then first appointment cancelled due to a emergency. Second appointment took a photo and here less than 5 minutes and that they will email surveyor. So still no closer to this repair being carried out.

No continuity of events

No continuity of events. New contractor keeps coming over without knowing the issue already discussed and just setting traps which is something we need. We need to fix the flooring and crack on the floor and the cracks in the garden as this is what’s causing the mouse to habituate there

Priscilla · 17 December 2024

Agent replied · 24 December 2024

Hi Priscilla,Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We very much appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention.Typically, when rodents are causing issues inside your home, our contractors will first carry out treatment to address the problem before we proceed with proofing your home. This process is crucial to ensure that the mice are not trapped inside your home during the treatment process. Our pest control contractor will then advise us on any necessary proofing works to help prevent the mice from returning.We hope this information helps and clarifies our processes for you. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions or concerns, and it'll be our pleasure to help wherever we can. You can contact us via email at contact@lqgroup.org.uk, and we kindly ask that you mention 'Trustpilot' in the subject line of your email. Feel free to get in touch anytime; we welcome the opportunity to gather more details and explore how we can further assist you.Many Thanks,Customer Service Team

Bad management and policies

By actually using professionals to do repairs and doing the job right the first time rather than sending 10 engineers for the same problem, not authorising the work recommending and on the 11th time and threat of going to the ombudsman it was actually fixed so probably cost them more in the long run. Bad financial and business management

Worst housing association ever

Worst housing association ever! I'm a highly vulnerable disabled person, and have been left with a broken door to the building for 4 and a half year.

Terrible service from L&Qs contractors!

Terrible service from L&Qs heating contractors! Instead of replacing a 16-year-old boiler, they wasted time and money on endless repairs, 4 visits, 5 appointments (including a cancellation), and over 2 weeks without heating. I had to take 2 days off work, only to endure cold weather with inadequate temporary heating. Absolutely disgraceful!

Annual Gas Check

It was a regular annual gas check !!Nothing was discussed with me by the engineer...so it's difficult to ''rate the experience''It would have helped to be told if all was okay or if anything needed to be done to improve safety..I use a gas cooker..just assuming it's safe to use..?!?!Feedback from the engineer would be useful.

Did not send a text message to confirm job reference number. The poster displaying the emergency number in the apartment was incorrect as when rung it stated it was no longer in use. I had to go the website to get the correct number.On a positive, the agent responded to the call quite quickly.

Why can't these people keep appointments

What's the point in arranging a date when they don't turn up. Twice I have taken the day off to have my bath replaced and twice they have not turned up. On both occasions they rang the day before to confirm, then texted in the morning to say they were on there way, only to call me an hour later saying they won't be coming after all. When I asked them for a reduction in that months rent for my inconvenience and loss of pay. they offer me a £20 gift card, wonderful. When you complain verbally they use the fact that you are upset as an excuse to say that you are being abusive and want to terminate the conversation.I have written two complaints back in January and February and so far have received nothing in the form of a reply even though they quote that complaints are dealt with within 30 days. I'm pretty sure this post will be responded to quickly as they don't want to be publicly shamed or admit that they do little or nothing except collect the rent. In all honesty they are about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

Great experience at Western Circus

From start to almost finish, my buying experience with L&Q has been great. Nicki the sales associate has been more than helpful and very accommodating allowing me to view the flat a few extra times before completion.

Had ace scaffolding to my home to…

Had ace scaffolding come to my home to erect scaffolding, to have a sewage pipe "fixed properly" I've only been waiting a year . After they finished I went to check, and found that they had broken the sewage pipe with a scaffolding bracket. For the umpteenth time now, I have an open sewer on my balcony, with the waste of 3 flats, being flushed onto my balcony. Not only that, they then proceeded to walk sewage through my flat. I had the company send them back to look at what they had done. Obviously they denied it. But then why was the scaffolding bracket directly underneath the broken pipe? London and quadrant are uncontactable to even report it. I have photos of everything, and I have voice recordings of ace scaffolding, blatantly lying, because it wasn't until they lied that I told them I was recording. Less than a week after my Sunday mirror story on them. I've had raw sewage issues for more than 9 years now, and it's getting worse. L&Q are a complete disgrace, and a child died because of mould at another property. The scaffolders quickly took the bracket away, but I already had the photos. I have yet an hour long secret video to view of them. L&Q are Absolute scumbags.

Got there in the end after buying a new cooker we in fact did not need

The original electrical failure in the cooker circuit was mis diagnosed as in - 'it's the cooker the wiring is fine' - on buying a new cooker at considerable cost the follow up visit then stated the wiring/plug was at fault, but could not be done at that point re parts - on the third visit the plug was fixed and the new cooker connected

I am registered as a vulnerable tenant…

I am registered as a vulnerable tenant with multiple health conditions.I live in a L&Q property (house), which is converted into two flats, I am upstairs Flat B, and my downstairs neighbour Flat A. My downstairs neighbour have been temporarily vacated since end of October due to major construction works in her flat. The L&Q contractors stupidly turned off the shared water stopcock/valve on Tuesday meaning I have had no water for two days thus far. The contractors have not been there since. The only tap I have is cold water in my kitchen. An emergency plumber attended my flat Wednesday evening and said/reported back to L&Q that there is nothing they can do without access to Flat A to turn on stopcock and reinstate my water supply. Instead of getting an emergency locksmith to force entry it appears L&Q are waiting for the vacated tenant or contractors to open door to Flat A and then book emergency plumber. Convoluted!! In the meantime I am suffering. Another example of below standard customer care.
