A family are at their "wits end" after being forced to "wade" through their neighbours' sewage in their bathroom.
Dave Stott, 50, has lived in the Beaconsfield flats in Prescot for 40 years, and officially bought his ground floor property through the Right to Buy scheme in August 2020. Dave currently lives in the flat with his two daughters, one of whom is pregnant, and said the family has been experiencing problems with their drains for more than four years.
Although the 50-year-old owns the flat, the drains are in a communal space maintained by the Livv Housing Group. On Wednesday (September 7), a blockage in the drain resulted in raw sewage being pumped into the the family's bathroom, meaning that Dave and his daughters couldn't use their bath, shower or toilet.
