The Amount of leaks Iv seen with copper due to people's stupidity is amazing plastic wouldn't have a hope.

Just found this thread and was wondering about the legalities of it. Do you ask the homeowners for permission to take photos in their home and then post them on the internet or how does it work?

This tread is obviously well intended to share and highlight the unusual and sometimes dangerous aspects.
It's self regulated by ourselves and the MOD'S and so far it's all been ok and good. No complaints yet.
