Scenario. Owner has an older style property with five bedrooms rented to four mid 20s lads. Kept in reasonable, but not good, condition. Next door is a home due for demolition. Next door has a well. Next door gets a contracor to cap the well. Contrator plugs the well with cement filled grout under high pressure.
The grout finds its way to the council owned mains on the street and, as people in the street use their water supply, it finds its way into the homes.
Our owner has cement filled grout throughout the home, pipes, HWC, dishwasher etc.
What is the potential liability and who pays?
