Pipe Tap being checked for bulge

...and severely penalized if they cause the pipe to bulge out at the tap. As inspectors, years later, they will make you rip out a whole pipe length if they think a tap will turn into a crack 30 years later. Why should we take over a problem a sloppy contractor dumped on us and have to spend 20,000 Euros on it? Why should anybody?
