All those concrete piles as well.

Sounds painful.

Watched an episode of this last night on More4.

Your bog standard IT consultants bought an asbestos riddled pile of tulipe, knocked it down & built a shiny new prefab.

Had all sorts of problems with water on the site, 3000 litres per week or more.

Reckoned that there was a spring.

Paid $AUD100k for remedial works, including a special $50k pipe to the council storm water drain.


Then someone discovered the major water main leak 50 yards up the road.

Oooops.

Yep saw that. Was a crass OTT house and didn't think it was in keeping with the area.

Made me laugh though when they discovered the cause of all the water. A$100k!!!!!! Wonder if he could sue the hydrologiusts or the water board.
