Had an issue this morning but will start from begining ,
Earlier in the week i was asked to fit a gas hob in a house that was having a bit of a refurb , painting , doors ,windows , kitchen etc etc the usuals house all empty whilst this is happening .
As i am gsr was asked to fit the hob so turned up on site fitted what was required however the oven which was electric had not turned up so i mentioned to the kitchen fitter that if any issues with my pipes and oven let me know when it arrives , it should be ok as have done it same way on many others no issues .
Now when i fitted the hob majority of work had been done just few odds and sods left so i tested the gas all sound and left with it all on as couldnt see any nails /screws in pipes issues.
Following day had a phone call from the owner saying oven didnt fit as pipe in the way could i sort it out please , said no probs will be over saturday morning (today) cust happy with that and tells me where to pick up key .
Turned up this morning opens the front door and oommpphh house is absolutely humping with gas , immediately switched ecv off opens windows to vent house , and then carry out TT which drops like a stone .
Goes into kitchen and notice oven in place under hob and fixed back managed to stick my head around and notice the kitchen fitter has forced oven in and is putting stress on a copper /iron fitting. Gas is proper pouring out now aftyer speaking to fitter he says should never left gas on whilst i say it was safe and who would do something as stupid as stressing a gas pipe .
Imho its about the chippie chasing money and not giving a fudge
but where do you think gsr would stand in this scenario ??
