When Amicus Horizon bring your ceiling down this is how they repair it. Nicely plastered by Booker and Best Ltd of Hastings East Sussex but it did take several months to do this repair job measuring 3ftx4ft and as for the painting they told the disabled tenant that redecorating Amicus Horizon homes following damage caused by them or their builders is the tenants job even though it is the only wc accessible to this tenant but they did only turn off his domestic water supply for 10 days.

Good Partners? or a danger to vulnerable tenants?
This minor repair was completed by Booker and Best Ltd Hastings Plumbing services on behalf of Amicus Horizon Housing Association. The repair took only twenty minutes but it did take 10 days for Booker and Best to come out.
To fix this very minor repair Booker and Best turned off the water supply to this disabled tenants social housing home and left him without any facilities for that period on the day that Booker and Best turned off the water supply there was about £100 of damage by the time they came back to repair the pipe there was thousands of pounds worth of damage to the house and furnishings
Safe installations are not a priority for Amicus Horizon or Booker and Best
Social Housing Tenants
This is not how they found this disabled tenants house but it is how they left it.
It took 5 years and a statutory order under the housing act from hastings borough council to force Amicus horizon housing association to repair the walls of this house that were leaking water because of roof spread. Redecoration is the responsibility of the tenant who is unable to go upstairs or climb ladders, in three weeks time 29th march 2010 they intend to do exactly the same to the back rooms.

The walls and light fittings in this amicus horizon home were pouring with water, it took 5 years for them to fix but they did so much damage to the tenants house and belongings that he wished they had stayed away. Booker and Best did the plastering work and they also inspected the walls of the house last year and found no problem it was hastings borough council and a surveyor who identified roof spread had damaged the walls. Thousands of pounds worth of damage and a disabled tenant without a bedroom for a year.

Some of the damage caused by Booker and Best Ltd repairs for Amicus Horizon housing. Some caused by roof damage. some caused by damp course. Some caused by guttering problems. All caused by Amicus Horizon head office sittingbourne kent.
Five ceilings need repairing after Booker and Best failed to turn up for 10 days to fix a pipe. Amicus Horizon said you`ve got kids get them to do it but the "kids" did`nt know how to do it and their disabled father certainly could`nt do it, so Amicus Horizon housing just it as it is. It has now been 8 months since the leaky pipe a four bedroomed house reduced to a 1 bedroomed house. No rent reduction or compensation, not even an apology.
Amicus Housing Association are now being investigated by the police for Disability discrimination, there are other cases that the police are looking into but our biggest problem is councils, public functioning bodies in Hastings do as they are told by Amicus Horizon simply because they control the housing

Thank you for dropping by.
Amicus Horizon Housing Association continue to commit acts of Disability discrimination made even worse by the fact that they are aware that children also live here.
Booker and Best have made attempts to put things right but they can only do the things that Amicus Horizon permit and good repairs are not high on their agenda.
You have been looking at an Amicus Horizon Housing Association Home they also offer shared ownership if you think that they would make a suitable partner joint owner. on the other hand I recommend that you contact David Foot quoting CPHA before signing any contracts.
