AirX Jet Support Ltd & Anor v London Jet Centre (Stanstead) Ltd & Anor [2025] EWHC 2628 (Ch) (14 October 2025)

AirX Jet Support Ltd & Anor v London Jet Centre (Stanstead) Ltd & Anor [2025] EWHC 2628 (Ch) (14 October 2025)

There is a serious issue to be tried regarding the Defendants' obligations to repair the roof and provide heating. However, due to factual uncertainty about the current state of the roof and the effectiveness of proposed repairs, an interim mandatory injunction for roof repairs is not granted; instead, a joint inspection by an independent expert is ordered. For heating, a mandatory order is justified, requiring Defendants to use best endeavours to restore gas-powered heating, but not to maintain a specific temperature.

Ratio Decidendi

There is a serious issue to be tried regarding the Defendants' obligations to repair the roof and provide heating. However, due to factual uncertainty about the current state of the roof and the effectiveness of proposed repairs, an interim mandatory injunction for roof repairs is not granted; instead, a joint inspection by an independent expert is ordered. For heating, a mandatory order is justified, requiring Defendants to use best endeavours to restore gas-powered heating, but not to maintain a specific temperature.
