During fitting a new dishwasher we found the condensate that runs behind the kitchen units has been leaking in the corner through a crack in the 90 degree elbow.
Due to a severe winter shortly after installing the boiler (2010) British Gas re-routed the condensate inside the kitchen before we re-modeled the kitchen.
My concern is if we repaire the current leak it will be hard to spot any future leaks if and when they occur. But if we re-route the condensate back outside there is the likelihood of it freezing.
The British Gas engineer estimated the cost of re-routing the condensate is 3 hours labour which with parts would be around £400
