Buildings insurance is what paid for the structural engineer to come
out. As a result they're going to be digging out all our drains at the
back of the house and relining them (different problem, but great as it
means I don't have to deal with the sheer mass of concrete out there).

The plumbing in the house is shot to hell, the job for the new year
after fitting the kitchen was going to be gutting the bathroom and
starting from scratch. Basically, the seal around the bath went a long
time before we purchased the house also the overflow wasn't sealed
correctly, this has caused the timber to rot, causing the bath to sink
slightly, making the seal even worse, etc etc.

I'm just unsure whether I want to make two claims at the same time or
let building insurance deal with the bigger job and I tackle the
smaller one myself.
