Today I was digging a trench for the footings of a front boundary wall.
The soil was very hard and the fork accidently made contact with the black water service and the resultant fountain was something they would have been proud of at Chatsworth.
This was on the main side of the stop tap.
Called Anglian Water. They seemed more interested in getting details of where and to whom to send the bill.
The defect was subsequently repaired.
This service pipe was at 550mm deep. I believe they should be at 750mm.
So on this basis can I realistically challenge the bill when it arrives?
