Exhaust repaired now 'clattering' grrrrrrrrr

Alrite lads, slightly annoyed with this one. :(

I took my car to get my exhaust repaired as it was blowing like hell and making a right racket see here for reason why! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?726445-Re-182-Cat-Mod-thread-Option-for-Me

Garage has replaced the centre section and put it all back together, sounds great and really happy with it as it sounds like standard again BUT when I reverse or take my foot off the accelerator the Exhaust clatters about pretty badly.

It definitely never did this before having this work done.

Question is, should I live with it - prob could or should I mention it?
 
  Many.
No doubt hitting the heatshield.

As you've paid a garage to do it, take it back and calmly explain theres a loud clattering noise that You think is a heatshield.

They may find, that its infact nothing to do with them, and its just rotted out (the heatshield!) but always worth a shot.
