Problem with recently fitted bathroom

Budha7

Hi
how dud you get on?
I am in a similar situation, I am a fitter who has just about finished a complete refit, which now turns out to have a faulty bath!
I visually checked the tub, no problems. I then fitted the tub, filled with water and sealed it, left it overnight with the water in, no problems. Emptyied it in the morning to check the waste etc, all good.
I have since filled it back up for tiling purposes. The water had been in it around 2 days when I noticed a small drip from underneath, after in vestigating and double/triple checking everything I have done, it turns out I can see the water leaking through the fibres of the bath. I cannot see where it is coming from.
The shop has agreed to supply a new bath, but says no to the fitting charges etc. I feel gutted for the customer because they just want it finished, have been saving up for this etc.
I did everything I could to check it wasn't faulty, (visually then water left in overnight), the shopworker visually inspected the bath prior to delivery. But who should pay for the refit? Supplier or manufacturer? Surely not me or the customer?

Any ideas please?
