Conveyencing company – they specialise in it and it’s cheaper (so the add says). Solicitors just get their office staff to do it as mentioned above. There are hold-ups and it’s impossible to get them on the phone. And they charge bigger fees in my experience.
Hi CoG,
The same thing happened in a bathroom in a house that I bought – water stains, turns out the shower was leaking. We said either cut the price or fix it – they decided to fix it. Not a year later it had to be completely renovated as it had only been temporarily repaired. Being totally naive at the time we just believed it was fixed so it was our own fault but I would just be cautious if you get them to fix any leaking, I’d try to negotiate a price reduction that includes a bit extra in case it’s a nastier problem then first thought!
