Hello,
Can anyone advise on yet another aspect of my own sadly growing list of concerns regarding my last builder.
I have been unable to obtain building regs on the work due to a number of issues introduced by my ex builder.
One of those issues was his failure to provide a gas safety certificate concerning the location of the boiler flu, which has left me with an issue concerning my physical safety and of that towards
anyone in my property, as the flu is too close to an open window. Is the failure to provide a gas safety cert and the fact that the flu location is dangerous effectively negligence?
My expectations are that my builder has a duty of care awards me, and this has been breached. Would this be considered as one of his fiduciary responsibilities?
Also in the same vein, he has not installed the structural steels as per the structural engineers design and effectively put me and again anyone within the property at risk. Until remedial work can be completed, I can't get building regs which have been declined by my local council (once again). Apparently they have not been joined correctly putting significant stress loadings through a single welded joint, when the steels should have been joined into the web of the linked steel as per the engineers drawings.
Finally,( and yet another reason I can't get building regs), is because the builder failed to install an extractor fan and ducting to to external vent from a new internal toilet, which again requires remedial works to put things right, along with a long list (over 35 separate issues) "snagging list", which he has failed to address, aside from using a variety of variations on the theme re his company name, and his failure to provide invoices or receipts, taking cash payments and or his failure to provide his actual business insurance details etc etc.
Another rogue trader obviously, but I am looking for nuisances that "lift/pierce the corporate veil"in order to hold him personally responsible.
Any help much appreciated.
