Hi,
In the last few days, Cadent have replaced the gas pipe running to my house, which included jackhammering a concrete path with is next to the building.
I have attached a before picture and a few afters. They eventually found the pipe, which was encased in concrete and was running parallel, and just alongside, the wooden fence.
The wall on the left is the main house. Behind the house is a brick outbuilding, and the two building are connected by a tiled porch area (which has a brick wall on the left side of the photo, and a flat roof which is continuous from the rear section of the house, over the porch area and onto the outbuilding).
The wooden door in the photo opens up onto the porch area.
As you will be able to see from the photos, they have broken the concrete somewhat under the door. I have looked at the tiled floor behind the door and cannot see any obvious damage to the tiles.
I'm hoping to get advice on two things.
1) Should I have any concerns in terms of the way the work has been done (in regards to potential damage to the buildings)
2) Is there anything I should specifically raise with them before the hole is filled (in terms of how the work should be carried out and checked)
Any thoughts would be very much appreciated.
