I have had my water tested three times now resulting in two negative and one positive result for hydrocarbons.
Invasive work has been carried out on this site to several houses because Hydrocarbons were found in the water of some houses.
The blue poly water supply pipes were replaced with barrier pipe by Haywood Homes. This obviously caused a an extensive amount of damage (as would be expected) to the car park, which was once so nice and no doubt stress to the residents.
After this work was finished, and because I LIVE DIRECTLY BEHIND THESE HOUSES I insisted my water was tested again as the first time it was tested I just received a flyer saying the water is safe.
This time it was positive, I had my water delivered and was given advice on the contaminated water.
This was on the Thursday afternoon and later that evening another sample was taken.
Friday morning both myself and my neighbours water meters were dug out and the blue poly pipes from the main to the meter were renewed with Barrier pipe .
Monday the hole was filled and I received my water result - it was negative.
I have had conflicting messages from Welsh water as to what happens next to say that I am annoyed is an understatement. When you buy a new house you don't expect to have to pay thousands to rectify this problem, as in my case the NHBC does not cover .
This makes a flooded garden, a live tank and misted windows menial problems !!
