Miss Fenwick said the landlord's agent had changed to a Lodge agent "a couple of weeks ago" but there had been no inspection and no response to their requests to the new landlord to have the balcony looked at.

| 1242276 | 2011-11-06 23:11:00 | I'm confused, did the tenants feel the deck was unsafe beforehand? Or are they talking about inspecting it after to fix? It's not the landlords fault if you've got a dozen people on a small deck and it breaks... | inphinity (7274) | ||
| 1242277 | 2011-11-07 08:42:00 | Yes the tenants did want the deck inspected before the accident. They should have kept off it until it was fixed. My neighbours wanted a small deck off the side of their house for a couple of chairs, the Council insisted it was built strong enough to hold 40 people because that's how many could fit on it. The Council doesn't seem to care about the existing decks that do a Cave Creek from time to time. |
