I got quoted £5500 for water connection and kicked up a fuss as it was only 6m trench to my boundary, the contractor came for a pre visit inspection and quietly advised me to go with the flow, I live on a very busy A road and found out the water mains was the other side of the road, when work started it caused mayhem with traffic lights and cars were backed up half mile each way, the council inspector was on site for hours each day and the works took best part of a week, they hit a gas main so had 3 Cadent teams on site for a day repairing, The work was finished 6 months ago and we have just had completion sign off, i was dreading getting a revised bill for tens of thousands but looks like the £5500 was a bargain..
