figures not yet checked

The Tribunal ordered that the costs of roof works, communal fire door works and two water leaks at Fitzalan House should be borne by the freeholder rather than the leaseholders and refunded if already paid, found the building insurance reasonable and payable, and made an order that the landlord cannot add the costs of this case to the service charge; the cost of individual flat door repairs remains with leaseholders.
