Default 20 year rising damp guarantee

I made a tentative stab to sort it out a few years ago and spoke to the
providers of the certificate (the company who provided the chemicals) and
they passed me onto the people who'd actually installed the damp-proofing
course.. I got nowhere because I didn't have the "plans" of the work
that
had been done and they said they couldn't help. I've now recently
located
the plans with the deeds of the house and you can see that some walls had
work done but others didn't.. Either way, ALL the lower grounds walls
are a
real state now with the worst having salt growing off them...

So.... What should I do about this?


Provide the plans, which seems to be their way of wriggling out, and see
what happens. If they dont honour the guarantee, get a quote and take
them to court.


Make sure you provide *copies* of plans IMO...
