Hi des yes they have all that information. They are saying that the legal team are insisting on photographs. Thanks

If t comes to court photographs won't be necessary, if on balance of probabilities it can be shown that there was a c*** up by gas contractors.
I'd start thinking about a Letter before Action, to concentrate their minds!

Re: Gas pipe through sewer pipe unusual one need advice

They have now accepted the proof from Water Company. They are acting as though they are an intermediate now for the sub contractors. I refuse to deal with the sub contractors. As far as I am concerned it is the Northern Gas Network who are ultimately responsible. I have asked for all my file to be sent to the CEO of the company. I got a short response today, that she had spoke to the CEO, and as far as he is concerned he is happy for her to carry on dealing with it, because it is her area of expertise. So basically he has not read our file, and get on your bike. I need help because it feels like I am being stopped from getting to anyone higher up the chain. I did read a thread on here from about 4 or 5 years ago. Which Celestine helped with. Could do with more help with this. Only other alternative is get a solicitor. Thanks for reading

Did you have to send a Letter before Action and threaten to initate court action before they started to accept the situation was down to their subcontractors?

I would go back to them (Write signed for)telling them you will only deal with them because as principles are liable for their agents.
Add that if they don't make a satisfactory offer within 14 days you will consider initiating court action without further reference to themselves, due to the length of time (? years) this matter has been unresolved due to their negligence and dilatoriness.
