Hi,
Been having soon building work done (extension and renovation) and things seem to have gone fairly well up to now.
Anyway, I had an existing suspended timber floor taken out and filled with concrete to convert to solid.
Under the previous suspended floor was a 400mm void and the gas, electric and water came in at the front door and laid across the concreted sub-floor to their respective points of presence up through the suspended timber. For gas and electric this is under the stairs.
However when the builder potted the concrete they have only encased the electric it seems in conduit and not the gas. A new blue water pipe has also need installed but again no sleeving of any kind.
I asked the building inspector about it and he said building control are not responsible for services entering the building, which I don't l find crazy, especially where just a h&s risk such as gas is concerned.
Anyway, I've attached some pictures for comment. Any advice as to what I should do here? I've notified the builder but not had a response as yet.
Thanks.
