    Oh how I love builders!!!

    Started a conservatory floor today. Screed laid by builder who then tried to disguise the obvious by pouring a couple of bags of poor quality SLC. Pics speak for themselves :yikes: Good old Mapei Ultraplan Renovation screed to the rescue yet again :thumbsup:

    Do you need builders!!!

    I get fed up with builders...your always up against things...Plumber needs to get back in the bathroom, Kitchen fitter needs to start :mad2: Then when customer see's the finished job they strut around taking all the praise. How many of you guys get your own work and do not work for builders?
