included in that cost. Management's quote does include all required and listed Light Fitments
(admittedly Tiffany Lamps).
d)_ (Hardwood woodwork) - please confirm exactly which doors are included - is it ALL interior doors (not tenant doors) or simply Main Front Door and the double doors adjacent. Does it also include the two large panelling sections on each landing outside the Lift which hides the pipeworks, as well as the woodwork outside of Flats 1, 4 and 7. Management's quote only includes Main Front Door and the double doors adjacent.
e)_ (Paintwork) - please confirm that you do require three colours for walls & ceiling as opposed to only two throughout. Management's quote is for only TWO colours for walls & ceilings throughout.
f)_ (Lift Doors) - please confirm if both the architraves around the lift doors are also to be painted and that the Mesh surround is also be painted after steam cleaning. What colour for all is proposed? Management's quote does include and colour proposed is copper/bronze to all surfaces.
g)_ (Options) - Install Emergency Lighting from ground to 3rd Floor - Management's proposal is to utilise installed (new) lights on an Emergency Lighting Circuit, on auto sensors as opposed to adding yet more (and very unattractive) Emergency Lighting all down the staircase. Management are also installing new all weather fire escape lights (auto sensed) plus two all weather Emergency Lights (auto sensed) on escape route above rear yard.
h)_ (Fire Detection System) - this is not a legal requirement at Mitre House. Management have, though, provided a quote in case it does become law.
i)_ (Cables) - this would appear to be a communal TV Aerial as opposed to Cable/Satellite/Sky Dish etc. Management's quote is for a Communal Sky Satellite Dish and installation.
j)_ Missing Items - it would help if those items originally specified by both Management and yourself and others are costed into your total costs - Management's total cost does include these items and indeed, to help come to a fair comparison, Management's cost for these items has also, until advised otherwise, been added to Wade's total costs (see Management's Spreadsheet items outlined in ORANGE).
Once we have confirmation or otherwise on the above, final quote totals for Wade can be assessed and correct comparisons can then be made on the Management Spreadsheet which I confirm, I'll send you by return.
We can then consider the Section 20 Notice (No. 1) although it seems bizarre it is now considered appropriate to send out over the Christmas period whereas it was considered inappropriate (by Flat 9) to send out way back during the summer due to holidays etc -
As regards your specific queries in your (red) email of 21st November - the replies are as follows:
1)_ re: WADE quote - full overhaul of woodwork - see item (d) above
2)_ re: WADE quote - remove and replace staircase handrail in brass etc - see item (b) above
