GW Plastics Ltd, Selsey, West Sussex.
I employed GW Plastics to fit New Facia and Soffit Capping
On my house back in late 2006, the work came with a 10 year guarantee, I was initially please with the work he done until 2 years ago when I went up into the loft one winter to discover that it was dripping with condensation, a problem that never existed before GW Plastics carried out the work.
After some research it was discovered that Mr Walsh had not put in enough soffit vents, which was not allowing the air to circulate around the loft.
Before GW Plastics carried out the work their was a continuous air vent grill all the way around the house but now there are only a few small round vents on each of the 4 sides, indeed one 10mtr side at the back of the house only has 4 round 70mm vents!
Regulations say that there should be 4 Vents every Meter.
I told Mr Walsh (the owner of GW Plastics) over a year ago about this problem and said that I would monitor it!
The problem returned the following year and in November 2010 I contacted Mr walsh again who said he would come round and fit some more vents as per the 10 year guarantee agreement.
I have been telephoning and writing to Mr walsh every week ever since and every time he said he would come round next week but never did, nor did he contact us to say he can’t make it.
On Tuesday 3/5/11 at 17:45pm I delivered a letter by car into the letterbox of GW Plastics home address at 35 West Street, Selsey, PO20 9AB, West Sussex, then got back into my car and started to drive away when the owner of the business a Mr Walsh was signalling for me to stop which I did and got out of the car to see what he had to say.
Mr Walsh told me to stop writing letters to him, I asked him why he keeps saying he is going to rectify the job he done but never turns up, his reply was because “I don’t like you” and then asked if he was going to rectify the work he has done and his reply was a blatant “no”, he then became very threatening and put is face very close to mine, when I asked “are you threatening me” he said “yes I am, what are you going to do about it”
I then turned around and got back into my car and drove home feeling very shaken and intimidated by this very aggressive man.
I am now very concerned and in fear of reprisals as he knows where my family and me live.
What should I do?
I have already reported him to Checkatrade with whom he is registered.
