    Obviously not and what happens when you make outrageous claims that you don’t fulfil.

        As do many builders it seems, “Now more than 80 newbuilds worth up to £850K will be torn down on upmarket estate due to ‘foundation problems'”.

          Yes indeed – I would never suggest that all builders are perfect
          I am not
          I have made mistakes
          I do not think I am wonderful and everyone else is rubbish

          You would of course not understand but the foundations will have been put in by a contractor to the developer’s specifications which are also agreed by the council.
          When foundation are completed they are inspected by the local authority building inspector,
          If he is satisfied that they meet spec he signs of and the construction continues.
          Clearly the contractor and LA inspect have messed up.
          There will be a claim made by the builder which will cost the contractor and the LA..
          Building a house is far more complex that taking a photo, putting it on rightmove and waiting to get an e mail.
