HALL of SHAME PHOTo`s

[TomLane]

Yes Plun Bob 66 it is all very sad but you can only blame the Public / Government cos no one seems to be interested in a licensing scheme for plumbers, like most other countries have which would stop all this shoddy work in a trice.

That wouldn't stop the "friend of a friend" types that claim to be able to do these jobs despite not actually being a plumber etc. Ultimately down to customer to be more savvy & not be blinded by the fact they think friends & family won't rip them off.

Yes Tom, Wouk have to agree but there are some very obviously gullible people out there that are vulnerable and easily taken in, this being a case in point. Without being rude, this customer wasn't the sharpest tool in the box sadly. An easy target!

There are indeed these types out there that are easily taken in. Frustrating when as a reputable tradesman you walk in to these situations & see the aftermath.

The unfortunate knock being the "tarred with the same brush syndrome"

The shoddy work of the few tends to make us guilty by association in some if the publics eyes.

People like this will get done time and time again, it's not right and never will be. But it'll keep on happening.

Grohe tap instructions show these iso's in use. Also seen them in Europe when I've been over there.

Yes, better not say anything controversial. Even in jest. You might get your ticket taken off you or something similarly severe. This is serious!! Gas is serious you know! It's not to be laughed at.

I'll risk my ticket ...thats great..Bouncy meters, pushfit, if their was a flexi tap con' i'd be well chuffed..
