I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with liability for leaks? I have a rental property which is a terraced house. Next door is experiencing a serious leak which they have investigated by digging down through their kitchen. They have found an old lead pipe which apparently serves various properties. They can't find exactly where the leak is coming from but it's coming out of the ground from the direction of underneath our house. I've spoken to United utilities who won't fix it as it's on "private land" although they may apparently pay you to £500 towards the cost of the fix. Although that could involve committing to doing extensive works. The insurance company say they may not cover it as even though the leak seems to be coming from underneath our house, it isn't actually causing damage to our house. Next door's insurance won't cover it because the leak is coming from a shared pipe underneath our house. Apparently to sort it it is likely to involve taking out the kitchen, digging up the floor and rehousing the tenant for a while. So ££££. Everyone is scratching their heads. Obviously next door can't just live with the leak. Does anyone at all have any experience of this type of thing? Help!
