    I’ll just add that the OP’s rights as a consumer are against the seller, not the manufacturer. 
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    ^Oh in which case you are really stuck. Short of taking the case to the trading standards ombudsman looks like you have no real options :(.

    Is the builder happy to just crack on?
    Trading Standards is not a ombudsman, nor will they talk to the public, or take on individual cases. OP would need to go via Citizen Advice.

    But in reality OP needs an expert 3rd party report to say what is wrong & what needs doing. Depending on that & how supplier deals. Then taking them to court would be the next step.

    I'm surprised the manufacturer thinks it's a good job, unless they don't want the installer to start using another firm. It looks obvious to me from the photos it's not fixed correctly.
