Local Council problem
I live in a council flat, and now my concrete floor has little dips come in it, which my wheelchair sometimes goes in, also i'm a right leg, below the knee, amputee and i'm scared to go around the room with my prosthetic leg incase i fall over.
My council will do the repair and lift and refit the carpet, the workmen said i'd need a new carpet, but the council say it's my responsability for gettng a new carpet. not them.
Surely as my carpet will be ruined it's the responsability on the council to replace it, after all i didnt cause the dips in the floor

Why do you need a new carpet?
No carpets are your responsability not councils. Unless the carpet belongs to the council
Why will the carpet be ruined by lifting it? Unless they intend to do it by slicing it into smaller pieces to lift it then simply undoing the sides and rolling it shouldn't cause any harm.
But why not go for a new carpet? You have all the upheaval anyway while they do the floor so why not splash out and get a new one?
