      If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.

        I had dealings with the NHBC some years back, and they were as much use as t*ts to a nun. They tried to get rid of me by telling me that building regs are just guidelines, not legally binding requirements. A blatant lie, which I knew because my brother-in-law is an architect.

        To me the important thing would be to get the leak fixed, pay for it and then worry about who to get the money back from. Radical, I know, but it's got to be better than having water pouring into your gran's flat.

            Aye. My gran is happy to pay for it. Going by the fact she is loaded (why are all old people minted) she'd happily pay for it herself. The management company wont let her as it will "invalidate the warranty" yet will not do anything else about it.

            Muppets.

              That's fecking crazy. What's the warranty for anyway? Problems with the construction I'd say, which surely this fits into. Idiots.

              You can try the NHBC. You never know they may have changed. Or as someone else said, the CAB. Or a muck spreader outside the management company's offices.
