Bought my house a few years ago and about a year after moving in I found out the water supply was acidic and was corroding everything. Parents of person I bought it from live next door and told me they have the same problem and tried to make sure during the build of my house that the buliders used as much qualplex as possible to reduce the effects.
When I found out , I had the water tested and put in a treatment system to counter it. Even with that, a showers, 5 rads, an immersion, and a well pump later, things are still corroding (I assume its because of the years of being untreated). Another shower is now looking like it is going.
Asked my solicitor about this a while back and he said I had no come back on this. Surely if the owners had known about this before selling, then they should have made any buyer aware or be some way liable??
I wouldn't see it being much different than selling a car with faulty brakes etc
