Hope somoeone can help me here. Bought a house last year with a two
year old, =A3 20,000 conservatory on. Over the wet summer a leak
develpoed, so I called the company. They came out to their credit, and
said they had repaired it. Further leaks developed however, and they
subsequently refused to answer my calls or come out. Decided with your
advise to go to the small claims court. Paid to have the leak repaired
and took photographs.
Got their defence today and now really worrying. Please advise if
possible. Their defence is that:
1. The warranty states that the benefits of the insurance for the
conservatory will pass to subsequent owners providing the Contractors
own Written guarantee states its transferable-which it doesn't-See
attached.
2. The leak is caused by a roofing problem, which we repaired
initially out of good will. (my roofers said the flashing wasn't
replaced and caused the susequent damage)

Is it worth throwing in the towel baecause of thw warranty issue -and
advise really appreciated.
