lmao...only just seen this thread...and after watching my brother build several projects, I fully expect this one to be the same, and spend the majority of the next 5 yrs in boxes and on stands, whilst he tells me I will change my mind when I drive or ride it......:-)))

Will that be a claim against who is responsible for the damage?

Yes mick, Severn Trent admit liability and to be fair have had loss guy out. Only prob I see is they don't do new for old so guy is trying to inflate costs to cover replacements.
Finger crossed it don't drag out for weeks.

Real feel for those who complete house floods, the mess it made in just 2 hrs was impressive !

We had the same thing last week.

Went out and found water rushing down the drive.

Appeared to come out where the sewer pipe came down the house. ££££'s sign at the thought of getting it sorted.

Then noticed it was still rushing down the drive, from a point outside the gate.

Water had pushed a telecom junction box lid off and water was pouring out.

The bit down the drive was coming out of their conduit, where they had brought the cable under the drive and up to the house.

Loads of stones and sand pushed out, water board were out in half an hour and fixed by 10.30 at night. Had to take our street light away as that was undermined.

As you say the amount of muck that gets pushed out is amazing. Lucky ours was a clean water main!!!

Hope they sort quickly and give generously for the replacement parts.

That's not good, hope it all gets sorted swiftly.

At least they have admitted responsibility and it's getting assessed. If that was pushed through on your home insurance you would have trouble.

I once made a claim for a break-in and the assessor said car spares were not covered. I had 4 off Revolution alloys with M+S tyres taken and they said as they were not on a car they are not covered! FFS how can I fit several spare sets to one car! They were off my oval racer. Daft but there you have it.
