Hi whale – thank you for responding quickly.
the common property tap and pipe to the ground had to be replaced it didn’t comply very old pipes and as the branch through the wall to the owners lot was attached above the stop valve for both taps. (it’s about a metre of copper pipe and two taps which is why it was hundreds – the tap to the Lot would have been brass and about 30cm of copper pipe.
you are right – heaven knows who gave permission to 1) put a hole in the common wall into the lot from this tap 2) allow this lot to have the tap from the common supply when they could have had a pipe from under their floor pipes and up to form a tap as others in the complex do.
we don’t have separately metered water to each lot.
so Fair trading site is not right in saying
