I'm moving out of my housing association flat soon, I'm at the stage of cleaning everywhere and painting here and there, fixing the odd flaw in the wall, repairing a door handle that was a bit wonky etc. Also been taking my carpets up.
Issue one: i have lived here for 12 years and the kitchen floor (vinyl) is stained here and there, it would need to be replaced for new person as nowhere near good enough to keep, I have cleaned it best i can but I may as well not have done as it's terrible and also has a tear in it from when i was moving the fridge out.
Issue two which I have only just found out about as i have just got home two hours ago and this is the one i am most worried about..
I had to go away for work for two weeks and just got back, a friend said he wanted to help me out by painting and glossing my hall, stairs and landing so he took the carpet up and got stuck in when I was away. He finished a few days ago and I just got home to a paint crime scene (not sure how else to say it!) paint job on walls and everywhere else is brilliant but he didn't put a sheet down for the floor/stairs/landing so splatters of paint, both emulsion and gloss went all over and is obviously dried in now. I have been trying to get it off since I got home and none of it is budging, not even sure what the stairs are made out of, all I know is they are classed as safety stairs, reminds me of a floor in a hospital or school or a wetroom floor..nothing is getting any of the paint off.
I'm assuming i will be charged to get it fixed by housing association when i leave which is fair enough but i was wondering if anyone has worked for a housing association how much approx it might cost if they do? I'm happy to pay but just trying to get an idea before i call them on monday. I imagine it won't be cheap to fix..
