If this was me and the house is new, meaning you are the first person to live there, I think I would go to the town building department and check the permits for this house to see if they were finalized, (passed final inspection). Getting together with the building contractor is a good idea but not the end-all for the solution to your problem. This sounds to me by your description above that you may have a more serious problem that may need the powers to be (meaning the inspection department/building department) to deal with your contractor (plumbing/septic contractor) as they speak the same language. Just my thoughts here. Bob
