> does anyone have experience getting a leaky roof in a tenement fixed?

Yes, I phoned the factor up, some guys inspected it that afternoon, did a temporary patch and then it was fixed properly a couple of days later and each flat was billed £26 from their float about a month after that.

So the fact that it's a known issue that hasn't been fixed even in getting the flat ready for sale is a massive red flag that there's somethingy fucky going on in terms of communal repairs. Even the shittiest factor can fix a leaky roof pronto, they'll just charge a fuckload for it. Does it even have a factor?

> And has anyone else noticed inconsistent category ratings between surveyors?

Lol, yes - viewed a semi which had a clean sweep of category 1s, it was visibly subsiding and about to collapse with 6-inch wide cracks floor to roof all through the outer walls on both sides.
