Hi I'm new to this site and hoping some1 can put my mind at ease!
Basically we bought a new build apartment ( ground floor) in dec 08. We have had numerous problems such as boiler installed incorrectly (had to move out for 2wks as it was 'immediatley dangerous', damp in en-suite aerials not working etc. We are working on these but it is taking forever. Anyway my latest concern is that recently we have heard loud creaking from the above apartment. It is similar to the creaks we get when shutting the main bedroom door- the noise travels through the Walls and ceiling. I'm worried that this could be a sign of a structural prob.
I'm hoping I'm worrying over nothing and this is a common thing with apartments but to be honest I've lost all confidence in our builders and just don't feel safe, especially as we now have a baby.
Any replies would be most appreciated
thanks
