About Aitch Group

I don’t like open plan because there’s limited space, bathrooms should have been made with a window to let out ventilation. The materials used for the walls in the properties are of poor quality as they break easily. Bathroom walls are damaged within a few weeks of moving in. Kitchen cupboards have been damaged due to poor maintenance of the sink and pipe. No heating has been available for nearly 2 years

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

We live right next to a dual carriageway which means there’s always noise no matter what time of day. Transport links are good, there’s buses and train stations within walking distance. Lots of nice big parks nearby and good school links. There’s no big supermarkets around which means you have to walk at least 20 min for products of good value for money. There are limited food places around, generally good social behaviour around compared to other areas of London.

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

I wish I knew that the rent goes up by a large amount every April. I know they go up within a few months normally but for us, it went up by about 30 pounds in less thank 2 years!

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

They are very poor in this matter. We moved in Jan 2020 and since then we’ve had no heating and no ventilation. Walls have been cracked and damaged and they don’t come and fix it

Management

There are lots of a facilities gym available as well. If there are any problems inside the flat it is easy to get help and they sorted it out. They didn’t have a long wait to get things fixed it was a very quick response time.

Design of my apartment is excellent and well insulated. Terrace is inset which means you can use it year round. We also have a wonderful roof terrace.
Building management and property management is regrettably an issue and most leaseholders are in dispute over service charge and building insurance which is likely to progress to Tier 1 tribunal. I would strongly advise any potential purchasers to closely investigate service charge.

There’s receptionist who is very helpful, if i have any problems i can contact them. There is also a roof and a gym and I would say the facilities are of good quality. There is management office for any extra issues or queries.
