The answer is due 8 Sep 2026, and the seepage record is strong on the mechanism but weak on duration.

The petition pleads breach and a 541 extra-contractual count. The extra-contractual count is thin — it recites the delay but does not identify a misrepresentation, so it is a plausible early dismissal target.

On the exclusion: the moisture mapping and the plumber's invoice both establish a supply-line failure at the same joint, and the field inspection notes staining consistent with repeated wetting. What we do not have is a dated observation putting the wetting beyond 14 days. The exclusion turns on "constant or repeated" — mechanism alone will not carry it.

What needs you: authorise an engineer to date the deterioration before we file the answer. If they cannot date it, the exclusion is a negotiating position rather than a defence, and the file should be valued accordingly.
