On Wednesday 10th December, Dunwell's arrived to clear the gutters at very short notice. The rain however, became too heavy to enable safe rope access, so they had to leave.
On Thursday 11th December, 4 men from Dunwell's arrived around 0830 and cleared what they could safely access. This was then followed by a cherry picker at 11am, on the Brunswick Elevation.
Jamie Bennett from Dunwell's sent up a drone to inspect on Friday 12th, and a report with photos, and an invoice was then sent on to Sharon, which she has now paid. If you have not yet done so, please pay your share directly to her as soon as possible.
Jamie Bennet from Dunwell's then attended on Thursday 18th in the afternoon to have a look at the properties affected. Given that we have already appointed F3 surveyors, he agreed to speak directly with David Bonar of F3, and discuss their findings.
On Friday 19th December, David had access to a cherry picker so went and had a closer inspection, and also having spoken to Jamie, they agreed on the issues, namely the stonework beneath the gutters being defective.
This is work that had been identified in the DM Hall Report and concurred by the F3 report. This must a priority for works going ahead.
On Monday 22nd, a conversation with David Bonar reiterated his recommendation for 'Phase 1', which would be to obtain quotes and proceed with the works marked 'immediate' in his updated report, circulated via WhatsApp.
A Zoom call has been arranged for 5pm on Tuesday 6th January 2026 with David, so that questions can be put directly to him.
