Oh dear,
I left my phone on last night cos I knew I would have a plumber coming round thismorning and that he would be coming round before I normally get up around 10.30 so I thought if I left it on he could wake me up.
At 7.50 he rung me to say he'd be here in half an hour. Bah I wouldn't mind but I don't even think I have had 4 hours kip :frusty:
Leave the door open, put some cash on the mat and go back to bed

Thats a good idea, and I have thought about it but they are fitting a new shower so its going to be noisy :(
also leavea note telling them to be quiet (stfu)
(beware of looking at their cracks)
eeew plumber's crack :sick:
I feel mentally unhinged atm

i bet he comes in, makes a lot of noice for 30min.
Asks tools from you, then goes off to get tools and materials missing,
comes back makes couple of hours noice, then tells you that some material is missing and
he gets it tomorrow and hell be back then and the same song starts all over again....
Thats the way most "projects" goes on around here...
:lol:
:lol:
Don't tempt fate please. We have been without a shower for nearly 3 months and before that we had water coming thru the ceiling for a year nearly. It wouldn't surprise me at all
IN fact I best havea bath before they turn the water off :ohmy:

It all depends how old the house is.
I had to install a dish-washing machine for a friend of mine (chick)
and it turned out to be one helluva session as the pipeworks on that house
dated back WWII era.
T'was almost impossible to find the right parts. Its a small town I live here so
the special parts needs to be ordered from elsewhere.
Got it working in the end thought.
That deosn't sound like fun. We gad a busrt main in our kitchen a few months back, not only did they discover it was old & illegal lead pipe but that it was hidden in the corner of the kitchen at the top behind some units :lol:
they are here now though :01:
Print out this picture

just incase they try to scam you, you should refuse to allow them to leave until you've tested the shower, and insist they watch so they can make sure everything is working
