GH Estate Office made aware that that a number of flats, in excess of 20, were experiencing issues with their Extractor Fans.

Smith & Byford Engineers (the contractors who maintain the Communal Extractor Fans on behalf of Wandsworth Borough Council),  identified that two of the Communal Extractor Fans needed to be removed from site for repairs to be undertaken.

GH Estate Office engaged with Smith & Byford on Wednesday 22nd March to ascertain when the fans will be back in operation on site and Smith & Byford confirmed that the works will be completed to the 2 x fans on site on Wednesday 29th March.

There is currently an issue with the connectivity to the Goulden House office which has resulted in the telephone system being offline. This also means the internet is down.

The supplier, BT, has been notified and they are currently working to restore services however BT have advised that it will likely be Monday before an engineer can attend the site.

The office phone number 020 7924 52 13 is being diverted to the estate manager’s personal mobile phone.

For any emergency matters, please call the Wandsworth Council helpline 020 8871 8081

Queries sent via email will be answered on Monday at the latest but some access is being managed via a mobile data connection.

The lift serving Entrance C is currently out of service following an earlier Lift Trapping.

Lift Engineers have been on site but the Lift C cannot be placed back in service until the Processer fault is addressed.

Lift Engineers are expecting to be back on site in the morning (9 March 2023) to try and rectify the issue.

We are aware that a number of flats, in excess of 20 flats, are experiencing issues with their Extractor Fans. If any resident is experiencing issues with their Extractor Fans, we ask that you note the following:

Smith & Byford Engineers (the contractors who maintain the Communal Extractor Fans on behalf of Wandsworth Borough Council), attended the site on 28^th February to undertake maintenance to the Communal Extractor Fans.  Unfortunately, they identified that two of the Communal Extractor Fans needed to be removed from the Flat Roof and would either be repaired or replaced, the latter would depend on what would be most cost effective.

Smith & Byford have assured us this afternoon (1^st March) that they are treating this with the urgency that it deserves.

We will keep the residents informed on any further updates received from Smith & Byford.
