Apologies if this is the wrong section but I thought there might be some landlords here.
The landlord will not speak to us over the phone, or come to the house. He will only text, and takes days to reply.
There have been a few issues including a broken boiler and his answer has always been 'google it'.
The kitchen has no floor - he was apparently in the middle of doing it during our second viewing, so we were surprised to see there was still no floor when we moved in.
So DH has been leaving answerphone messages and texts asking when it will be done, landlord has text every few days saying he will do it soon but never does. He's now been ignoring us completely for almost two weeks.
What can we do? The inventory lists a new kitchen floor. We stupidly signed this because we thought he was doing it right there and then. DH would put down some lino or something himself but the agreement says we can't do anything to the house (including putting up curtains/pictures/posters) without his written permission.
I'm annoyed about it because what do we do if there's an emergency with the house and he won't answer the bloody phone?
