Don't even get me started on poor workmen FFS
The painter phoned me last night an hour and a half after I finished work to see if he could send one of his painters today(the roughest painter in the world that I wouldn't trust to paint my dilapidated garage ) unsupervised to paint an almost finished and carpeted area , we'd already had a conversation earlier in the week when he said he'd rather not send anyone so I'd then shuffled all the other contractors about and he then got stroppy because I couldn't accommodate him .
Out of the three quartz worktops to be fitted only one can be fitted as we found out after the contractor had turned up and cut the tops 2 would have to have beveled joints because his company only supply 2.8 meter lengths !
And then there's the fucking tiler !
The he's fitted probably 150 large tiles and 20 of them have been snagged meaning he has to remove and replace the tiles which are on perfectly square and level plasterboard walls because the tiles aren't flat to each other or the cuts are out of square

. How the f**k he's going to do it I don't know and the worst of it is it's in a workers changing room at a scrapyard so the place will be ditched within 10 minutes of hand over
At the moment I'm boxing in a soil pipe with vent that was running up the corner of the disabled toilet and already boxed in waiting to be taped and jointed but because there was no pipe running up the wall in the plan the owner of the building has made the plumber move the pipe so it runs across the bottom of the wall coming in from the other side of the disabled toilet !
I give in
Rant over
