Well the plumber was on time and polite , did what he could on reported dripping basin toilet taps , by replacing washers within them. Then with push button flush that was proving stiff to operate flushing of toilet , with fast dripping water still passing down into toilet basin bowl after doing so. He just replaced a washer again , and said as it’s an old cistern , it will need a replacement, if gets worse ! So it’s ok on flushing for now , but still drips water after flushing 🤷🏻so will need after nearly 20 years of use here , a new toilet cistern at least soon please 🙏

TrustpilotHere I am repeating myself again...what a surprise!
And residents or their guests/regular visitors continue to leave Lawrence Court main front door unlocked via the latch.I suppose you're going to send another letter out because that's been really effective... instead of checking the CCTV cam footage that you are charging us fees for... weekly... to see who the culprit(s) is/are.Like I've repeated endlessly across years... I will sue you should I have my home broken into. I have already sought legal council and I retain evidence of me telling you over and over and over.

Hi Blackbutterflai,Thank you for leaving us another review and for updating us with the disturbances you're still experiencing.Whilst we appreciate the noise is disturbing and causing some distress, sadly we're unable to prevent your neighbours from having visitors. However, if the level of disturbance is excessive and it's continuing to happen, we do advise you to report the matter to the noise team at your local council.We also recommend you continue reporting your concerns and provide evidence to our Area Housing Manager who we understand previously contacted yourself regarding this matter. Unfortunately, we're unable to pursue this matter here for you, and it's very important your evidence and concerns are reported as mentioned above.We can also consider noise equipment to be installed in your home, which’ll help you to provide evidence and for us to measure the noise levels you’re experiencing. If this is something you would like us to do, please do let our Area Housing Manager know who’ll be more than happy to provide further details to you.Many ThanksCustomer Service Team

Do not buy at L&Q they are completely incompetent at putting a service charge together we have just received a letter that they messed up on our charge and pretty much to expect a large bill in Septenber when I'll have a new born baby and on maternity leave. They are disgusting do not go with them.In response to the reply below... which is very patronising and misses the point.

TrustpilotConcerns
Just bought our brand new home from L & Q - so far…1. We have a grid outside our house completely blocked - and no cover 2. We have windows (new) scratched and chipped and because we didn't see them within 7 days of moving in (as they are not on the 7 day form) we have to pay to have them replaced/ repaired.3. Still have outstanding jobs (scratched front door/damaged thrasher) after 15weeks4. We have had three leaks so far...One seriously flooding the ground floor5. We have a shower that floods the floor every time we use it because the bath is not the correct design to accommodate the water from the shower above.6. The main internal water stop tap valve is seized and we unable to turn off our water without a wrench7.The water meter is unable to be read or isolated because it is submerged in 2feet of murky water8. The rear garden is water logged and has insufficient drainage

TrustpilotWorst customer service experience
I never post reviews, but I just had the most disgusting experience with the lq energy customer service and I had to put this on the internet! Spoke to an agent that kept telling me “madam I will say it one more time because you don’t seem to understand”. Mind you, first time he said that I hadn’t even told him yet why I am calling! He kept interrupting me and didn’t let me finish a sentence. Wow, I can’t believe people like that work in customer service; dude just get another job, you clearly can’t be bothered. Insane service and of course my issue is still pending.

TrustpilotL&Q still owe me £210
L&Q still owe me £210 despite making false claims about issuing a cheque 10 months ago that has never materialised, their inability to simply process a BACS payment, inability to respond to any email what so ever and simply continuing to just ignore their responsibilities, drag the situation out further and continue to gaslight me. Pay me my money or I am going to kill myself and write your names in the suicide letter.Despite sending L&Q an email on 3rd April like this message suggested, 15 days later and we still have zero movement.

6months L&Q are now calling me a liar. They failed to keep up with appointments and are now trying to cover up there lies with their own lies. Make this make sense. You texted me to tell us dates of appointments. They failed to turn up when my boiler broke down within 24 hours. And have lied time and time again. And are now blaming the customer for their own failure and lack of duty of care for the customer. 6 months later and the complaints team have not responded on time, have not looked at the complaint issue properly. This has made me physically sick 🤢. I’ve just come back from the toilet. As this situation is getting out of control. Now I want to take L&Q to court.

TrustpilotNoisy and expensive to sell
I moved into a new flat 1.5 years ago. During the sales meeting I explicitly asked about the insulation of the flats as I was looking for a quiet place to work from home. I also like to sleep in quiet. I was told that specific noise tests had been conducted. This flat is by far the noisiest I have ever lived in. I can basically hear everything my neighbours are doing (walking, running, cleaning, moving furniture, playing instruments, listening to music, dogs barking, closing their front door in the hallway sounds like someone slammed my door). I feel like I live in a dorm for grownups. Another thing that I wish I had known is that it is extremely expensive to sell the flat again. If I am not mistaken it will cost me about £5,000 in mortgage fees and roughly £5,000 fees paid to L&Q for selling your flat, plus fees for a lawyer. I should have investigated this, but thought I would be able to live here for the coming decade or so.

Absolutely pathetic services. We did not have access to drinking water or cooking/cleaning water for four days. Customer service told me the job was booked and an emergency engineer would be with us in four hours, but no one arrived until the fourth day. Even after mentioning that I have an elderly mother who suffers from dementia and schizophrenia, they still lied and said an engineer would be with us. They also mentioned they only had one emergency engineer in the SE10 area. If i could give them zero i would!

You need to have repair people who actually listen to and believe the resident and take the time and trouble to sort out the issues first time.

TrustpilotVery bad experience…..
Moved into the property on 13th and had to get gas uncapped which was booked in later that day - in the afternoon engineer called my phone for like second which I missed as could not get to it on time. Managed to finally get through to someone to find it was the engineer- but as didn’t answer he left (did not even knock on the door). So, they said would rebook but not same day - the next on the 14th. The 14th came, only fit the engineer to turn up / uncap the gas, but realised there was no power to the boiler as it had not been connected to the mains - and in fact the wires had been cut and he could not do it as needed an electrician of which l&q was supposed to have arranged. He said it would have to be booked in for another time along with an electrician (so he contacted l&q and so did a few times) and the job was rebooked for the Thursday 16th. So now 4 days on, no fully functional/safe boiler. No heating. The Thursday came, only to be told it still could not be done as there was no electrician arranged. So maybe they would do it the next day (Friday 17th). Friday came with no contact, so I had to call them multiple times and also contact my housing officer. Was then told it could not be done until the following week on the 22nd. This boiler should have been checked and connected before I moved into the property - but this was a failure on l&q’s part. It’s been a stressful ordeal, I too of a very stressful move. Disgraceful communication from both, and complete lack of care, priority and professionalism.

Hi Dean,Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us and we're deeply sorry your moving experience hasn't gone so well for you.We sincerely apologise for all the trouble you've been through, and we're also saddened to learn of your experiences with ourselves and our gas contractor.Recommissioning of the boiler is usually arranged on the day of moving into the property and we understand an order was raised to our contractor for them to attend within 24 hours as per our service level agreement. Unfortunately recommissioning of the boiler is never carried out prior to handing over the property to a new tenant.Whilst we appreciate further issues occurred with the recommissioning, the power supply has been arranged to be completed by our contractor and this was never intended to be completed by our electrician, however we sincerely apologise to you for any misunderstanding or confusion this has caused.We understand a confirmed date for the repair has been arranged with our gas contractor, and they’ve offered the first available appointment to you. We’re confident the boiler will be fully operating for you very soon and your heating or hot water supplies will be resolved.In the meantime, we’ve certainly taken onboard your feedback as its important for us to know when things aren’t going so well for our residents so we can look at ways to prevent the same from happening again.If of course there’s any further issues, please do let us know by email at lqdirect@lqgroup.org.uk (with ‘Trustpilot’ in the subject line) and we’ll be sure to assist you in finding a resolution.Apologies to you once again for the experience had and for the frustration, inconvenience and upset this matter has caused to you.
