Yeah, as the above poster says, vital repairs can be forced onto tenants by the council. The same applies to shared cost i.e. a hole in the roof in borne by all the people living directly underneath it.

Our stairwell lighting was knackered (only turning on about 9pm, had to pick way down in the dark) and had evidently been that way all summer. Being a studenty bit, and most students (unlike myself) being lazy b*stards, no-one had done a thing about it. Rang council Friday lunch, they came and repaired it Friday afternoon. Sure everyone else would have been happy to save that massive effort.

(Oh aye, and is there anything you hate more than folk who chub open/prop open the main doors?)
