Trying to get a hold of them to see if they will cover the extra cost :/ We were on good terms with the old owners and they still live in the street so fingers crossed.

No reply from the seller yet...need to chat to another neighbour on a battleaxe block next door who had to get them to dig up the road end (conduit 1.5m below ground level) a couple years back when they built.

Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 4m 12d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 11/11/15 09:26 PM Share Posted 11/11/15 09:26 PM (edited) Mate I want to play devils advocate. But read the conditions of your sale. Generally you buy the land/house as is. That's why you get all that time to organise building and electrical and pest inspections etc.But in saying that as well. Nothing sh*ts me more than people who cheap out and install internal flexible conduit underground instead of HD PVC or at least PVC.I hope you get a good outcome but don't be surprised if you don't get anything.Edit: instead of the old owners if you have an email from the real estate claiming the conduit is installed or all working etc, that's probably a better line to try for reimbursement.
