I recently boarded and skimmed the the loft space of an extension (bungalow). The builder had been asked by the building inspectors on their previous visit to put in a universal beam to prevent the roof (pitch) spreading. This had been done and the roof was insulated with 270mm of rockwool.
I cracked on with the job and all seemed well. However, it turns out that the building inspectors hadn't been called back to inspect the beam or the insulation which is now hidden behind plasterboard and a perfect layer of skim Â
The builder is no longer on the scene and the owners of the bungalow have been in touch with me, panicking that the building inspectors will make them tear down the plasterboard etc to get a look at the beam and insulation. The end of the newly installed beam can be seen from the old loft but that's about as much as you can see. It's not really my problem as such, I was just doing what I was told and presumed the building inspectors had been out. I just want to put their minds to rest if possible as I've done a bit of work for the family over the years. Are the building inspectors likely to make them tear down my handywork? The rest of the extension is built to a pretty good standard and it's obvious the builder was no bobski. Apparently the architect has also been out numerous times and was happy with the work at all stages. I presume this must hold a bit of weight. Appreciate any advice here....sorry about the essay  :
