There had been discussions between buyer/estate agent/X regarding additional surveys being done. Concrete testing. No one thought to tell me, and neighbours called to ask what was going on. X says he didn't know that was what was happening.
However, the house was built in the 1820's of granite. they were testing for a type of concrete used in some buildings during the 1950!! No chance of them finding it.
Well, that's the explanation they have all come up with. Some of the BS I have to listen to sometimes who knows.
Last week the sale completion was imminent. Now..! No idea!
