Collapse - 2008/02/08 17:46 I hear Redrow have suffered another collapse in Greenock.

Funnily enough this is not far from last year's Manor Kingdom / Bett Homes / Gladedale collapse at Inverkip. Must be something in the air.

Re:Collapse - 2008/02/21 13:07 I have received a bit of inside information from the Inverclyde area that in actual fact there have been 4 gable end collapses at this Redrow development and more worryingly that there is damage to the internal walls / structural integrity as well. Defect identified is insufficient wall ties.

This worries me because my Bett Homes / Gladedale property has insufficient wall ties as well. I am still waitng for them to come out and do something about it. I think I have been waiting for about 3 years now.

It has also been brought to my attention that the Manor Kingdom / Bett Homes / Gladedale site down the road from this Redrow site, at Inverkip Marina also suffers from this defect. See http://www.snagging.org/option,com_joomlaboard/Itemid,30/func,view/id,870/catid,108.html

Sounds like a common defect. But as John Croal (Gladedale Customer Services) has said - "It is all in accordance with the NHBC's Guidelines which are guidance only, so it doesn't really matter".
