New Kitchen, bathroom, upgrade to central heating and other matters to attend to.
Only I could choose the worst winter for 40 years to have this done!
I am convinced they like to cause as much stress as possible, not to mention the mess. Will be great when all is completed, but that momentous day looks to at least 2 weeks away.

You will have a mental breakdown and crack up. If they say 2 weeks, they mean by the middle of May - this May if you are really lucky.

then there are the FULL skips that NEVER seem to get removed , the ones you have to suck your belly in to meander through ..
the builders blame the skip hire , but when the extra large Bill arrives on your doormat once the builders have departed ...you will find it was actually the builders who couldn't be rsed .. :0

I just got a polish plasterer to do 3 rooms in my house, including ceilings, for £400. It took him 4 days and the job is perfect and he tidied up afterwards. I just wish i got him to do my front room instead of an english pasterer who thinks that walls should be uneven, the working day finnishes at 3.30, and that every builder deserves a cuppa and a fag every 20 minutes.

my 3x english plasterers left me with bits of plaster everywhere ....looked like a Paint Ball war had taken place in the room , the hall and the porch !!
and I only had one room done ..
..the girl paid them , but didn't think that I might not want to spend a couple of hours cleaning up when I arrived home !! :-(

A neighbour of mine is earning well out of Polish plumbers - putting their work right.

Who in their right mind would employ non-registered heating engineers to do work?

No wonder houses are spontaneously combusting throughout the country.

Turn the kitchen taps on and the lavatory flushes is a common fault.
