However, if that is true, then that shifts the blame onto J&E Shepherds, doesn't it? When it wasn't fixed, we frequently complained about it over the course of the month. Eventually I just got the number from them and organised getting it fixed myself. So it's their responsibility then, isn't it?

I wish I had a copy of my contract to see what the exact wording referring to repairs is!
It is their responsibility as when we had our flood we didnt have to pay for that months rent as it was almost a month that we were living with water running through our kitchen. However I believe they allowed us not to pay this then chased up the owner of the flat.
