That is my point, the neighbours don't need to compromise, but in that case neither should I if it didn't suit me. hence my comment. I agree that most the advice has been useful, except for a few comments made by certain individuals, again the reason why I made my point. Either way, thanks to you all for the useful advise provided. I have managed to get a few quotes from joiners and carpenters who will start the work at the begining of the new year.

Maybe I should just rent the flat out to drug addicts who like to play loud musical instruments. My point is that there needs to be a point of comprimise.

Hey Jah Lush With that tone I am surprised you have any neighbours

No, but the smoke entering the flat does.

Hi : TillieTrotter Have you thought of the fact that others could get lung cancer and asthma from smoking. I doubt curry has the same side effects.

Hi Cate I have wooden flooring, and have plugged as many holes as I possibly could ;-( The neighbour downstairs is a tennant, but as the landlord has not enfored the no smoking rule, there is little I can do. The landlord does not seem to be be too conerned as he is still getting his rent. Hi Computedshortly We didn't end up doing renovations to the loft, bathroom or the chimney brest; but were lucky enough to catch all the mice ;-); but I will look into the expeller. I think, if I do move, i might have the same problem elsewhere so not sure how much of a good idea this is. But I will consider placingteh property on the market from Jan if the property prices ever go back up again ;-| I'll keep you all posted on progress, and thanks for all your advice

Hi It is cigarette smoke rather than the illegal substance, but it is still an unbearable smell.

Hi Cate Seems that it is comming through various places, I think Bob is right, might just be a bad Victorian conversion. I called Southwark council but they rekon they can't do anything about it.

Hi I have a neighbour below me that won't stop smoking whih causes our flat to skink of the unbearable smell. They refuse to smoke oustide, any ideas how to address this issues?

Please do not go to le garage & son for a repair, you will regret it

I sent my survey to my insurers and got them to decide whether the property is insurable and what needs to be done. In that way you're in safe hands i terms of what you need to and not need to report.
