Hey there OCUK!
I'll get to the point
Living room ruined due to sewage water coming up from below (theres a grate/drain under carpet) Living room is on extension of house. The smell is overpoweringly bad.
Landlord has said we cant use water in kitchen or washing machine. (yeah im renting) that was Sunday. Water is gone from living room but its still disgusting. Still cant use taps in kitchen or use washing machine.
Do i have rights in this kinda situation? I know landlords are obligated to make repairs but im not sure on the timescale. None of us can wash our clothes (approx 8 other people here in HMO)
I txted him yesterday to ask for an update - no answer yet.
