Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Jon please continue to do so,
We have just discovered that our roof terrace has sprung a leak, it's taken a couple of years for this to happen - but some of the torrential rain in April found its way through.
So we have found all the former posts quite interesting and timely.

Hi All
Coming out for the first time to stay in our house mid May, never been this time of year before, what's the weather like and does it get cold in the evening? Any advice welcome!

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Mid May - Mid June are in my view the best not too hot spring is still in the air and the landscape is still green. Projected temps are mid 20s just a bit cooler than it has been last week. Add another 10* for sitting in the sun. Evening temps 12 - 15*.

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
We too find May a fantastic time of year to visit. The temperature has been in the mid 20s both times we have visited in May. As Kath says lovely and green still, with flowers blooming. We have been able to sit out in the evening but I also need a light cardigan so must be 'nesh' not heard that saying for a long time.
Lucky you wish we could fit in a May visit this year!!
Oh well back to work.

Im sure most people have this - but just in case here is a link to the 10 day forecast, just in case

Right now we are giving Ayamonte a run for the money - perhaps winning even here in Northern Europe.......... but can't wait to get back!!

I hope we can all work something out regarding these leaks....
I'm happy to share information on this forum (both issues and successes/recommendation) because I've learned a lot here.
This forum helped us to achieve a great completion recently.
Some may remember the upbeat post I sent, about the great time we had on completion. And how so many things worked out so efficiently (+ the fun we had with other forum members) - when we got the keys. We were delighted with the quality of service we got after completion.
Thank you to all who have taken time to post both the good and bad stuff - planning for the positive and planning a way around the negative - has been really valuable to us!
We're looking forward to meeting more members over time.....
Regards
Jon

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
I think you are exaggerrating a bit betris... 'mental meltdown' is over the top.
Obviously you are an expert on this and dont see this as a problem and will 'get around to it sometime'. However I think it is good to point this out to the forum. From my experience most of the people here are not the unconfident, inexperienced or nervous people you imply that they are.
The problem I referred to is something that should have been addressed by Fadesa. They have already done some fixes, regarding lifting tiles and 'tanking'. Also the damp treatment that I referred to that you (incorrectly) think would not work, was actually performed with success by somebody in the block. As I mentioned this is not a good solution for me although it works , because this needs to be redone periodically - and that would end up being my responsibility... when Fadesa should have done it right first time.
John's post shows that this isn't the 'Spanish way' and that there are people out there that know how to build properly.
However the problem is that this could be pervasive across the development and there are many terraces with appartments below. Fixing this wholesale could be a big issue for M-F.
Most leaks as I mentioned would be in the external corridors, but still over time this could be very unnatractive. Also damp issues can escalate... you are the expert here, so you should also know that repeated damp, can over time, cause some issues. Even in hot areas like Spain where things 'dry out'.
I think it is valuable to share issues with the forum and I dont feel that I am dealing with inadquate people.

Jon

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Yes we understand where you are comming from.But the basements as you call them usualy end up as extra rooms of the house at a later date and some terices on esuri are leaking through but the fall is going toward the house and although sometimes there is nothing underneath but another say ground floor terrice.the celing and wall of the room in the house are soaking wet and mouldy black.so I think there are a few diferent indevidual problems to be solved

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Think we have problems.... Regents Park Barracks - where the Household Cavalry regt operate from has horses stabled at ground level and the QM's dept underneath. Apparently there is some difficulty with this arrangement and horse p..s which leeches through the floor. All the stuff in the QMs is covered by plastic sheeting, and it is a fairly rich smell down there! Wasnt it one of those fantastic 60s-70s builds?

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
My suggestion to BE residents with a roof terrace is - Don't stable horses on your roof.
