Suggest checking the drain pipework is well sealed and the trap functional...

might pull the covers off and check that the H/E is fitted centrally. If it's moved in transit it could be leaning on one or other of the covers, distorting it away from the foam seal. / mine's normally absolutely dry, but currently- extracting a tonne of water from the screed- there's a weep from the bottom of the front panel...

Existing Foundations
we bought a plot with planning retained on footings. A change of design took a *long* time.

Existing Foundations
to have retained planning, the footings must've been inspected by BC. Talking them into getting the files out of storage might take a wee while these days?
-
Existing Foundations
drains are already in. If you can use the current footprint and the footings suit what's going on top, carry on. If not, sadly it's digger and crusher time...

The BCO isn't coming back, won't be measuring it, and the builder won't be fixing it. But you will live with a cold room unless you work out what should've been done and check what was done. If the room was warm, none of this would matter; but you've got a problem and you're currently trying to diagnose it.
