Maintenance Satisfaction

Sailmakers, E14

Nov 2024

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

It is in a great and safe location. Everything someone may need is around the area. Very clean and organized streets and parks.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Maintenance service is excellent. Yesterday I asked for maintenance for my heating and this morning Dean Joáo came and fixed the problem. He was very kind and helpful to all of my questions.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

There is nothing I wish to know before I moved in.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

I like the proximity of everything: there are tons of grocery stores (ASDA, Tesco, Lidl - you name it). Transport accessibility is wonderful: just 17 mins to Liverpool Street and only 15 mins to King's Cross. Even though Victoria line is not a pleasant Tube line it is still pretty convenient. I do not like Haringey attitude in terms of litter: it is everywhere and I'm extremely disgusted with it.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Managers respond to problems quite fast and are able to address issues asap.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I with I would have an idea of how much I would like this place and would like to stay for longer.

It's not a place to live, it's a lifestyle.

Dressage Court, E2

Nov 2024

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Dressage court is a delight. The staff are very helpful, there is a lot of amazing places close by (esp. Three Colts Tavern, The Sun Tavern and Satan's Whiskers). You are in the middle of East London with very good connectivity throughout the week and weekend whereas in west you rely heavily on buses in most areas come the weekend. The flats are beautifully designed, warm in the winter and breezy in the summer.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Sorry i think i more or less covered this above but rapid when there was anything wrong and so rarely is given teams are so good at maintaining the building.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Very minor but a little dark in the day without lighting. Everything else was shared ahead of time, for example it seems like you guys read these and try to at least assure we are aware as they did say the ventilation for cooking wasn't the best and you might have to open a window if cooking on the hob. that being said they are easy sacrifices as you have the rooftop for light and the shared kitchen for any intense cooking :)

Union Wharf, SE8

Nov 2024

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

There is a waitrose right on the door step and we are right next to a park with the Greenwich town beside us.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

The main issue would be that there is too much scaffolding on the building.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

That there would have been the scaffolding for years.

This is an excellent location, conveniently situated near the underground. The area boasts a plethora of new developments, and there is an excellent gymnasium available.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

It's very quick, I can easily reach them in the office.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

There is a large place you can get study in the top of the building.
