managed to pull the floor forward for tomorrow.....thank god......she was talking about hovering and dusting next.....:yikes:

I like that idea - hovering and dusting, saves getting the steps out

I feel your pain Andy, so annoying when that happens.
Started a shower room yesterday and wanted to be done in 3 days as I've got jobs waiting.
All walls studded out and when I went to quote the boards weren't on but I checked the studs/noggins and were all bang on.
Got there yesterday and the walls were all over the place. Spreader had done the ceiling so had to cut all the boards out to find shed loads of insulation between studs and board in random places. Best part of a day sorting some other trades ****!
Sadly I'm not doing the plumbing on this one but jesus the guy they've got is dog rough. Not seen him use his pipe bender yet as this clown prefers his knee! All the floor boards are rocking on the notched out pipes. He wants me to tile ALL the floor before he puts a lovely slim line tray in - on a riser kit! Apparently any leaks will do less damage this way:no: and he can get at it to sort it!

All this extra time and effort is being charged but it still winds me right up.
