Its well over a year now so should be ok but you are right and maybe there would be consequences on the house insurance. There is always people at home here though.
When I did it I think there was one which wasn't fitted properly and it gave way after about ten minutes. There is a bit of a knack to making sure it seals correctly but I think the easiest thing is to make sure the pipes are cut evenly.
I worked out it would have been cheaper to have called a plumber as it would have taken them less than two hours to do the job but I had fun and learnt a lot while doing it.
