And let's remind ourselves of one basic fact this 'award winning' estate which is rapidly proving itself to be not fit for purpose was a NEW BUILD.

'The idea that so many problems can exist yet they can get given praise and awards at fancy hotels, at fancy award ceremonies, is a total insult to the hard working people who have been put through hell with the issues we’ve suffered on this estate'

Let's remind ourselves what multi million pound construction company Bouygues UK had to say: A more durable marine grade plywood ought to have been used. They're now replacing the balcony fascias. And take safety very seriously

The construction of the balconies on this estate was a disastrous catalogue of errors. A subcontractor (which by the way doesn't get @bouyguesuk off the hook) seemingly used the WRONG materials. Wood more suitable for shelves in your bedroom than a balcony

Here's a reminder of why there's such fury from residents : bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

It's somewhat bizarre that the The Standard new homes awards has totally ignored BBC London approaches highlighting this. We've also had no comment from First time buyer readers awards

And Tory mayoral candidate Susan Hall AM says : 'I call for awards to be rescinded when there are major failings on safety standards'

The housing industry was downing champagne at 5 star hotel award ceremonies. For a development that's now potentially unsafe and unfit for purpose. You can see why residents are furious!

I wish they spent less time taking cool photos and more time checking the materials and subcontractors. Maybe that would help them avoid using plywood in our balconies, for example...

Do you think it will make a difference or just lead to more of same?

So am curious about what you see as the answer / clearly the inspection regime doesn’t really do very much - what else needs to be done ?
