i did a bathroom suite for a property developer.and during installation he was complaining about the old water stains on the 40 year old ceiling below.anyway i fitted the suite and checked every joint at least ten times. even went back next day to replace the bath trap.i showed him everything was working and told him to turn off the water while no one was working in the house and to keep an eye out in case any leaks develop.4 days later he phones me to say there has been a leak.i turn up and check the bath and the hot tap adaptor is leaking and he and his pal are ripping down the kitchen ceiling below.he then states that i have to replace the ceiling.i told his he had no right ripping down the ceiling.he then goes on to to say he hopes the electrics and the 40 year old chipboard flooring are ok.i did ask at the start if they had done other houses and he said yes.i then asked about his regular workforce he replied he keeps changing it.any advice is appreciated.and how do we plumbers cover our bum.thanks
