One Hyde Park residents sue for £35 million repairs

Residents of One Hyde Park in London are suing Laing O’Rourke for £35 million, claiming defects in the luxury building. Issues include corrosion, leaking joints, and faulty equipment, with problems reported as early as 2014. The lawsuit, initiated in 2021, has reached trial, but Laing O’Rourke is not participating. The owners allege the company withdrew financial support to avoid responsibility for compensation. Laing O’Rourke has stated it attempted to resolve the issues amicably and offered to conduct repairs. However, the owners argue that necessary remedial work has not been completed.
