Hi All
I have recently returned from CDS having stayed there over the new year.
We arrived to find the car park in block 29 covered in 4/5 inches of water and sludge.
The water mark on the walls was above 5 feet. Ammex did arrange for several guys to work on this but the holidays got in the way.
We left last Friday by which time most the of the floor was clean but the lift unusable.
I guess we were lucky that all the electrics in our apartment and communal areas were unaffected.
A word of warning though if you have anything in the store rooms, they will almost certainly be covered in 4/5 inches of sludge
which may harden in the following days/weeks. I managed to clean mine, with some items ruined....
It was very time consuming to clean.
From looking at the aftermath the water must have poured through the air bricks in the car park ;
Externally these are a matter of inches above the ground.
without major drainage work this will happen again.
If you had a car in either 28 or 29 you should speak to insurance asap.
I heard through the grapevine that an insurance assesser had been to survey the damage I couldn't ascertain
on who's behalf they were inspecting.
