1- What is the UK Law for piping works regarding hidden/latent defect if no latent defect period is specified after the defect date in the contract data and have no specific clause in the contract ?
My understanding is that the contractor is no more liable after the defect date if no specific clause in the contract extend the liability. Am I correct or the UK law is giving a clear frame on that topic ?
2.1- If I am not correct and that the contractor liability is still engaged after the defect date for latent defect. Then if a hidden/latent defect is identified after the defect date by the Owner; what happens ?
Remedial works are not paid under clause 11.2 (25) for correcting Defects after Completion.
2.2- If I am correct, the Employer shall manage himself the remedial works.
Thanking you in advance for this support.
