I moved into a new build property 2 years ago, it has turned out the exterior wall of the property is bulging in places and is out of plumb by more than the tolerances outlined in the NHBC cover. After fighting with the housing developer, they have finally agreed to carry out the remedial work, this will involve removing all of the exterior brickwork for the one wall - corner to corner, so this can be corrected.
I'm extremely concerned about having this work done, it seems like a major task to essentially rebuild the exterior wall and ensure the wall ties and insulation are put right to the required standard, especially when everything else is in place and the property has been decorated and is being lived in. As far as I know there has been no involvement from a structural engineer.
I don't know if there needs to be just to make sure?
Does this warrant any sort of compensation? I have been stressing over this for a few weeks now, whilst I have been told I don't need to take any time off work, I will still have to leave work early to try and catch them before they finish for the day, just to get an update on what's happening.
Any advice would be gratefully received. Thank you
