hi fella's got a slight problem.....i did a boiler change a year ago and had a nasty email off the customer last week saying that they had to call british gas out to sort out a leak apparantly where i had blanked off the old hot feed in the airing cupboard. He said that british gas also took down a peice of plaster board 4ft x 3ft, i asked why he didn't call me first as my work is still under garantee and would've gone over to sort out the problem and he said he needed someone there and then...and again i asked why not call me!!
Now he says he wants me to cover costs of the repair to the ceiling including decoration.
Now because i didn't see the problem first hand i fear british gas may have made a mountain out of a mole hill and made it look a lot worse than it was. I am going over to see the job tomorrow and just wondering what you guys think of the situation...i'm not happy with other people going to repair my work and i can't beleive that the leak has been going on for a year without anyone noticing!!
I'm thinking of saying because someone else intefered with my work it voids my garantee and i'm not responsible for costs or shall i just bite the bullet and pay out?
any thoughts would be welcome.
