Hi all,
We moved into our self-build a year ago. We had problems with the plumbing from the beginning. At the moment the ceiling in my bathroom is coming down, laminate flooring is coming up, various water marks in the painting, no hot water the past week and the latest is that after he came back to fix something, my back boiler stove and all the pipes started banging. This happened while I was giving a yoga class ( I work from home) and my eldest daughter ran in terrified that the house was going to blow up. Needless to say I had to leave my clients.
The plumber is a friend of my husband and my husband is hesitant to take any action. But by now I'm fed up and it's not improving the relationship between me and my husband. We have no contract, no proof of payments as everything was cash. The only thing is a handwritten piece of paper specifying the work but no name or signature.
Is there anything that I can do, any legal steps? Cause ideally I would like somebody else coming in, fix everything including the plasterwork, flooring and paint and send him the bill.
Apologies for the rant but I'm ready to kill....
