Hi there,
I bought a house which used to be a bungalow but has had the roof raised to create 3 bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs.
The master bedroom seem freezing (you can see your breath in there) so I got a builder to have a look under the plasterboard ceiling and it seems there is no insulation in there!!!
The extension was done in 2000 and we bought the house in 2008.
The builder said we should contact building control to see what was completed and signed off.
My question is if it turns out that building control have signed off the build and the insulation was not done, can we get some sort of monies from them to help with the work. Surely someone is liable/ negligent here???!!
Thanks,
Worried and freezing Catherine!
