Kew Bridge Rise

I had a viewing at Kew Bridge Rise and was shown around by Nicky. Nicky was very helpful and explained the shared ownership process in a way that was easy to understand.

Left to use a faulty electric water heater

Have been left with no boiler since the beginning of September So no heating which is becoming a problem now it is getting cold and causing damp and mould and only a faulty immersion heater for hot water which we keep getting electric shocks ( one strong enough to throw me backwards) from when we have to reset itI cannot believe this is how they treat tenants Do they not have some kind of duty of care to keep people safe from their faulty appliances ?I have contacted them multiple times but still no further along and no idea if or when they will reinstate a boiler for me Or maybe they’re just waiting for a shock big enough to kill me so I go away and stop asking them to do what is morally and legally expected

Don't do shared ownership with L&Q!! Im a shared owner and for 2 years now…

Don't do shared ownership with L&Q!! I've been a shared owner and for 2 years now I've been dealing with L&Q for most of this time because it leaks from the rooftop into my apartment. 2 years of weekly calling and I've been through both stages of complaints processes already and STILL no repair in sight. The water damage to my flat is getting worse with every time it rains, by now my apartment is full of mold and my bedroom uninhabitable. I had my apartment re-valued and it has lost 100k GBP value due to the damage. If you're considering purchasing a flat through L&Q I'd be urging you to reconsider.

L&Q bad management of property

L&Q bad management of property, no maintenance on time, additional injuries, rubbish, dirty spaces and no progress with repairs! Don't buy anything in the Erith Quarry it is rubbish and bad investment!After response from the L&Q nothing really was done. They paid before compensation for injury at communal area but unfortunately still they are prefers to injuring customer's in their buildings but when I was calling today also they postponed any action to repair.Strange management as well from point of view insurers. It is very cost full for the NHS and the insurers to have flat or house with the L&Q.For example they have the Shouting Team after hours where you can call for urgent repair but unfortunately they don't have any maintenance after hours.Bad quality of construction, bad maintenance and very bad management.I think children's in early education are more responsible for toys. Don't buy anything from the L&Q because you can end up injured under quality of construction work and aftercare!

Disgusting treatment of their tenants

Still waiting for a replacement boiler after almost 2 months Had a call a couple of weeks ago making an appointment for them to finally fit it today Took the day off work and cleared the kitchen and airing cupboard for access only for someone to turn up to check for asbestos I’m not sure if they think it grows or appears on its own as they have replaced the boiler once already so I’m sure they should have known this already Been left with just a faulty immersion heater that continually trips which is costing a fortune to run Don’t understand how they are allowed to make their tenants live in such appalling conditions

However, with all major works a R&D survey is an essential part of our process prior to the works commencing, but we empathise with the disappointment it has caused you.We would very much like to follow up on the installation progress and to provide you with an update.

Nothing charitable about L&Q

I can only assume that L&Q promote themselves as a charity for tax purposes, as in my opinion they’re more akin to grifters than a charitable foundation.Extortionate service charges with no evidence of billed work being carried out, and - despite repeated requests - a failure to provide invoices or receipts for this work (in breach of section 22 of the Landlord & Tenant Act 1985). Not only has my monthly service charge doubled (mostly due to insurance costs and mysterious ‘management fees’) but I’ve now had an additional lump sum of over £100 added to it halfway through the year due to L&Q supposedly ‘underestimating’ their expenditure. It has taken weeks to get a response from L&Q about this, and even then they have dodged the issue and have not acknowledged the fact that I’m disputing the service charge bill. They’re quick enough to send payment demands and take my money, but have absolutely no interest in actually dealing with my grievance.As a private homeowner that is unfortunate enough to have L&Q as their leaseholder, I feel that I’m being forced to pay for irrelevant repairs and ground maintenance on their properties elsewhere in the area - for example, I’m currently being charged for tree pruning and grass cutting on a property several streets away, when my own home has a private garden that I maintain myself. It’s nothing short of a blatant cash grab. My advice to anyone considering buying or renting an L&Q home would be avoid this company at all costs, as it’s not worth the long term stress and potential financial hardship. Their customer service is appalling, there’s no accountability and zero engagement with homeowners. It’s clear that this organisation cares more about profits than people.

They don't care about their resident…

They don't care about their resident safety and wellbeing. Years ago when kids where sneaking in the building and breaking things, all the residents got text messages to report to police if anything is spotted again, but once it comes to residents property or belongings- nobody cares. 2 flats were broken into weirdly at the same time when l&q hired contractors were changing doors to the flats, and these people knew exactly what time where to go. 2 elderly vulnerable ladies got robbed, it was obvious that robbers worked together with contractors to know all the information. L&q didn't bother to warn the residents and a poor man who came to comfort his mother had to stick posters on walls on each floor for us to know what has happened and be aware.Now people have followed delivery person in this same property they have no access to and stolen packages that delivery person has just chacked outside flats without permission, police report has been made, crime reference has been sent to l&q and police has contacted l&q too but l&q is not responding to the police and almost whole month has passed so likely there's no longer available footage of culprits and if that's so, police can't do much. Again l&q is not participating and doing nothing to keep their residents safe and conformable.

Huge Service charge from L&Q with no explanation

UPDATE: After 2 months of trying to get the details, L&Q informed me that they made a mistake and were trying to charge me again the same amount I already paid. Please be very careful and check every bill as this company is clearly involved in financial abuse! They overspend the budget by more than 60% without any explanation provided.L&Q has initially asked for monthly service charge of £430 which was already too high. However, when I received the final statement, it's more than £800 per month only for service charge which is already higher than my rent and as an owner of shared ownership flat, it's much more than initial 45% of my salary I am paying in total. Very bad service, no one is willing to explain what the money was spent on and I only see huge management fees in the balance breakdown. Please be very careful when dealing with this company.

The Worst L&Q Housing Association…

The Worst L&Q Housing Association Charity in England, The Management Team and Board of Directors with the Chief Director are all corrupted. They build new stock and the old stock they neglect not met and not maintained absolutely disgraceful. The Goverment should Investigate and close L&Q into administration. We should all demonstrate with a petition at Whitehall Downing Street. L&Q dose not care about the Tenants. The name once was called Beaver and emerged with anther Housing Association. The founder was a Priest who was corrupted. Please Investigate on Wikipedia.

Impossible to contact customer service

I have been calling their customer service to close my account because I am moving out for over a week. It is impossible to get in the phone with somebody. After waiting for two or three hours on the line, you decide that you prefer they call you back and once they do, the line is cut.

Appalling Service and Ignorant Management

I’m dealing with my first issue with L&Q and it’s been a nightmare. I’ve had a leak from a pipe, and their response has been nothing short of terrible. Despite emails going to managers, they either ignore them or are unable to take any meaningful action.The leak continues, dripping directly onto an electrical plug, which is a serious safety hazard. The lack of urgency and basic competence from this company is alarming. I will be reporting this further, as their service is completely unacceptable.

Avoid at all costs

Avoid at all costs, it’s not worth the stress you will endure. Repair requests can take months to be acknowledged and then even longer to complete. I have an open complaint which I’ve had no response to since July despite regularly chasing. I now have to use my local councillor to ensure L&Q take accountability. Lifts go out of service for months on end, I live in a 10 storey block and we had no lifts for over a week. Poor workmanship on buildings, can hear your neighbours cough. Estate maintenance is non existent despite paying service charge. Flats and houses are riddled with mice but no action taken by L&Q to maintain the shrubbery. There have been huge fire concerns on the estate as many buildings were found to have over 100 failures on the fire risk assessment. No parking for residents and they use a parking company that uses sly tactics to ticket you, the parking enforcement is also over Christmas and new year so no chance of family round as the surrounding area is CPZ. I’ve never spoke to an adult on the phone before, the barely existent customer service is 18yr old college leavers who do nothing to help. AVOID AVOID AVOID

The operative from Extreme Environmental has been so great but until the kitchen units are removed he can't finish his work . This has to be done by a carpenter and this has delayed the work by Extreme Environmental. This infestation of mice has been ongoing since May 2023.
