One assumes it if was hanging it would have been upside down and got
flooded. As has already been posted warn your builders (foreman and
company boss) that the sensor has been damaged by their actions and
you expect them to pay for the replacement. You might have to meet
them half way as you didn't tell them that it was a delicate bit of
kit and needed careful treatment but *they* didn't ask you what it was
and did it need protecting...

You can say you are going to attempt a repair but still hold them
liable. Take it down, take it apart, clean it up and leave it in the
airing cupboard, disassembled, for 48 hrs. Reassemble and test, it
might come back.

Thanks for the suggestions, will speak to the builders and attempt the
airing cupboard method. Does anyone know of these sensors are soldered to
the wires inside?

Thanks
