It states in our tenancy:
"You are not allowed to lay laminate or wood flooring if you have someone living below you, if you do this and it causes noise issues we will take legal action against you"
Despite this he laid laminate flooring. He has been here 8 years.
since i moved in 8months ago, the noise from above has been horrendous, his washing machine, his phone vibrating through the night, his tv, him walking in boots, dropping things, moving things, ect
There is also 0 sound proofing in here in general.
I constantly use to leave my flat just to get work done when i was suppose to be working from home because i couldnt consecrate.
I did briefly mention to him there is no sound proofing and he said nobody else has complained.
eventually i complained to the HA since then he has been saying to the management how he has been here 8 years with no complaints, which makes no sense considering he also told me this flat has been vacant most part and also who is to say when he laid the laminate?
he lied and said he works and leaves the house at 6am and came back at 11pm
this isnt true either and say he has tried to be nice to me by signing for my parcels which is a normal thing to do and either way because he signs for my parcels it doesnt mean he can make as much noise as he likes.
what he was trying to do was devalue my complaint.
He did eventually admit to the manager he had laminate which i was saying from the start, it was obvious with hearing things rolling across the floor.
He has knocked on my door to say how im making his life unbearable as he now needs to tiptoe around and wear headphones.
I told him i didnt ask him to do this and i didnt ask him to lay laminate flooring, its in the tenancy for a reason and he said now i have complained he may get evicted.
am i wrong for this?
He was proper trying to make me feel bad about it but why lay laminate flooring?
