A good time in Skye edge
I think the designs are perfect enough. Parking space is also a 100 percent and there is nothing really to fix. We don’t theft issues and do not have miscrants around but there are always things to do to forestall future negative occurrences over all,it has been awesome
Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
I think it’s just the bin store which Muhammad has really been up and doing. Stones,it gets messed up and there was a time I had to take time to clean it. I will say a Camera should be fixed there to be able to check for those who don’t dispose off their waste correctly. The sight of a cctv alone will make people do the right thing
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Immediately any problem is logged,it’s picked up immediately
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Well,there are some network service providers which does not work here which may be cheaper than the one we have

Poor quality of finish and lack of care
The overall development of the property is satisfactory, but there are significant concerns about the quality of the finishing in our home. Approximately half of the living space was inadequately finished, contrary to the assurance that we were moving into a place that would be cleaned and refurbished to a 'like new' condition. Upon moving in, we discovered incomplete carpet installations, including one room with gum stuck in the carpet and visible signs of wear. When we brought these issues to the attention of the landlord, their response was that a carpet clean would not be carried out as they deemed the marks to be remnants from the previous tenancy.
In addition to the carpeting concerns, there are various issues throughout the property:
Kitchen:
Condensation in windows
High-pitched noise from the extractor at times
Improperly installed fridge bottom vent
Cleaning deficiencies not meeting professional standards
Missing cabinet 'stoppers'
Inadequately fixed dishwasher
Scuffs on the wall (corner)
Wooden panel under the dishwasher falling off and not properly fitted
Dining Room:
Chips in the floor
Marks on the door frame (front door)
Paint marks on the toilet door
Living Room:
Marks on the walls
Radiator side not properly fitted
Bedroom One:
Scuff marks on the corner of the wall
Various marks on the walls
Mould on windows
Marks on the window frame
Bedroom Two:
Marks on the wall
Marks on the door frame
Bedroom Three:
Various stains on the carpet
Gum-like substance stuck in the carpet
Bathroom:
Stains on flooring
Stains on skirting board
Stains on the wall
Uncleaned sink (underneath)
Rust on the radiator
Holes on the bath wall
Cracked paint in various spots
Despite reporting these issues to Placefirst, no action has been taken to address any of these concerns.
Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The area is fine, there was a lot of anti-social behaviour in the beginning but that seems to be less so now. Otherwise it's fine.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Mixture of being ignored and being rectified. Often need to chase up problems as solutions don't come or are forgotten about. Sometimes we just don't report anymore as it's too much effort to just get ignored.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Wish the commitment to 'as new' was true, since this was false we felt misled.
