The damp proof course has failed, and the 10 year guarantee has expired long ago. So we are currently having this rectified on the house. We’ve contracted the entire job to Hambleton Preservation Services.
They arrived promptly at 8.30am today to start the work.

We didn’t like the carpet, we’ve not even had the house 24 hours, and we’ve started knocking it about.
The carpet had to go, because tomorrow I hand the house over to the builders to install a damp proof course on the ground floor, so some of the plaster will be removed, damp proof course installed, tanked, and re-skimmed, and then we’ve got to find a new carpet!
We don’t like the carpet, it’s got to go!
We don’t like the wood chip wallpaper, it’s also got to go!
Umm, damp that’ll be fixed…
we don’t like the yellow walls either…
We finally completed on our new house today and I collected the keys at 1.30pm, and at 2.00pm met the Damp Surveyor.
This is it!
I think I might need a sit on lawn mower! I’ve also found a plum, pear, apple tree and a christmas tree in the garden!
and a petrol hedge trimmer!
I’ve also learnt that another British aquatics company has closed down. There is however a connection with an aquatic retail outlet, that was the sole distributor for System 2000 products.
The Registered Office addresses for all the above limited companies are
507 BRADFORD ROAD
BATLEY
WEST YORKSHIRE
WF17 8LL
or variations of the above
FOUNTAIN MILL
503 BRADFORD ROAD
BATLEY
WEST YORKSHIRE
WF17 8LL
System 2000 Ltd have voluntary applied recently to be struck off, but this has been suspended, because of a Third Party Objection.
The above information was obtained from Companies House Cardiff and is in the public domain.
This triangle of companies all seems a little bit suspicious in my opinion, but it’s a shame that these professional products have bit the dust, leaving many customers with no support or service.
I feel let down, as a System 2000 user, that regularly visited Batley, to purchase spare parts, there was never any mention of a closure. I’m sure they had their reasons.
