We rent out a property that we used to live in, so yes we're the dreaded accidental landlords but we do try and do our best for the tenant in terms of repairs etc. Anyway the tenant has been in touch today saying the pilot light on the boiler keeps going out so I've been in touch with a plumber who is going to pop in today and try and get it sorted. Earlier this year the tenant (who claims various benefits and is not in work at present) said he qualified via one of the government schemes for a new boiler and asked if we were happy for him to get this fitted, we replied that this was fine. Anyway today after the message re the boiler I asked if this was the new boiler and he said they hadn't been able to fit it as they could not locate the stop cock.
Can anyone tell me where a stop cock might be located in a 100ish year old terraced house?!
