yes thats the one

l had a booklet on the shower but no certificate to what l can remember

I can't get at it but will get it done in the morning if thats ok, just been reading about the mould my husbands been really ill with the cough and it's been treated as GERD but all medication failed him, l wondering if it could be the mould, the hole where the ceiling came down was left open for some days - l can't thank you all enough

The shower is a Mira Advance atl thermostatic

Yes they did recommend the builder The sewage had gone into the joists and between the rafters if that makes sense luck enough we had artexed ceielings with a good depth of paint on, my worry was the thought of sewage where we couldn't get at between floors

They suggested the builders, we had no choice involvemen, It is an electric shower but sure we had no certificate

The house is 1960, thank you for reassurance one images all things

Thats interesting, l'm sure we had no certificate but will check with my husband the electrican was the tiler and plumber. what would the black be on the joists? l have added a photo

Yes and verbally Shower room fitted Oct 2013 1st fault following first day when tiles fell off over night, replaced following day 2nd fault when shower room finished, water ran onto landing, company returned back and lowered the shower curtain, this didn't stop the wate, some days later they returned and pushed 1/4inch boards under the flooring between the shower and the door, leaving a ridge in the floor covering. 3rd issue of the sewage was in Oct just before 12 months of the start of the job

Thank you all 1) Home owner 2) The local authority awarded the contract out of three companies, the other two both came out and did estimates the other first day of the start of the job was the first time 3)No paper work 4) No mention of any warranty, l do feel a twit now for not mentioning about warranty in the begining The local authority made the award to the company as part of the agreement of the Grant

Don't think we have, really appreciated thank you

SEWAGE RUNNING ONTO JOISTS FOR NEARLY 12 MONTHS l had a shower room fitted under a council grant through an care organisation, from the onset wqe had problems, the tiles fell off the wall due to no prep work, this was redone, the shower ran water from the shower through the door on to the landing, so boards was fitted underneath now showing a rduige which as gone very springy. we just acceprted all the above but since our kitchen started to get condensation more and more but we didn't give a thought to any connection to the shower room, at the same time t5wo of the three of us suffered with severe coughs also the dog did, all with unknow causes. but suddenlty we noticed water marks on our wall by the stack pipe unit, having got the representaive who organised the grant from the council insisted it was just condensation, cutting a long story short after makin an hole in the ceiling it was clearly wet and cold, the person left and said he would see what could be done, after returning with an attitude owner of the company he agreed to have a look but if we was wrong we would have to pay, in between my son borrowed a Probe Camera and looked up the stack and saw no cap had been placed on the sewage pipe when the bath was took out, each time the toilet flushed it went on to the joists etc, the workamn looked at it and made out that he had dropped the cap but it had failed which sometime he said happend but he couldnt show us because he dropped it down the stack, when he went ouytside to his van he took his bag of rubbish which my wife went and looked and found the part he had sawn off which also showed that hge had no capping on, when asked he knew he had been rumbled, the joists in the exact area of the leak was badly discoloured black with some white on which l have been told is dry rot and could be in a larger area than the small area which he had covered. l have had so much stress over this and feel that the comnpany have devalued my property, l would like to sue the builder but not sure who my contract is with, would it be the council, the company or the orgamizer of the grant ? would be grateful for any advise thanks
