A report has been reported that water has been leaking for four months due to a building defect in a public rental house.
The stairs where the water flowed in a row has recently turned into an ice plate in a cold wave, and it is dangerous to hang icicles on the wall. Reporter Min-jung Kim went to the scene.
<Reporter> In
a villa in Seo-gu, Incheon, ice is icing on the floor of the stairs, and icicles the size of a person are hanging from the wall.
This is a public rental housing provided by LH inexpensively to the vulnerable who receive living and medical benefits.
The expectation that a home would be created by paying a deposit of 5.8 million won and a monthly rent of 180,000 won turned into disappointment.
Water, which started leaking upstairs four months ago, turned the stairs into an ice rink.
Even people who fell down while walking on the ice stairs came out.
LH claimed that the construction was delayed because the leaked house didn't cooperate, but the residents were different.
[Furniture tenant who started leaking: (You mean that construction always allowed it?) Oh yes.
I came back and came all day (I went to work on it)] I
did the repair work in the morning, but since the leak has been neglected for several months, traces remain everywhere.
Electricity is cut off due to a long leak, so the common entrance door does not close at all, and stair lights do not come on.
[Applicable villa tenant: At night, there is no light at all, so I turn on my mobile phone and go back and forth.
So it's so uncomfortable and slippery.]
LH explained that the repair of defects was delayed as one rental housing management department is in charge of 18,995 households.
[LH Public Official: We don't want to do it, we don't, but there are a lot of rental housing in the metropolitan area.
More detailed inspections are needed to keep the government's promise to increase quality rental housing.
