Commercial or domestic

'Safety hitlers' :lol: I like that.

one lad I used to work with never liked doing floors with steelies on but always got told! HaHaaaa

All us boys used to let be known of health & safety officer was on site or contracts firm bosses were about as we all used to rush to get the high Vis's back on ! :lol:
 
Im on a commercial at the mo, toilet blocks, i was polishing up today and set the fire alarms off, emptied the place, about 100 staff out front ,with me walking around them whistling to shaggys old song
"It wasn't me"
 
The tiles didn't turn up for 2 days on this one, fortunately I had another job on about 70 miles away so I managed to keep us busy for a couple of days. Even more have been taken up now which is a pain as I'm running out of time before I go on holiday!!
 
High peak I understand what that lad ur onabout felt... Ive tiled in steels and it did my toe joints no good at all lol

I have had TFD Mr T, (tilers foot drop) damage to the peroneal nerve where it puts the foot to sleep.. so dont talk to me about knee damage!

I tile floors in skater style shoes & my steelie trainers on walls & prep work.
 
Loved the commercial stuff but could be a year waiting for final payment, mostly domestic now and paid when finished. At the moment the commercial is paying about €14 per meter utter crap for what you have to do on sites, so dont think I will be returning to it soon.
