I have a insurance job to try and rescue a poorly installed quad shower the customer wants to save the tiling if possible and has a few spare so fingers crossed it may work , the loss adjuster allowed em £1500 that will just about cover materials. Kop

1st day back after having last week off, got lumbered with a fault “boiler tripping electrics and blowing fuses” after carrying out basic electrical checks, I managed (after an hour or so) to trace the fault to a 240vac thermostat - customer had hung an air freshener and just have punctured the cable slightly 🙄

Started the post easter season with a syphon change, rusted cistern nuts real tip. Moved onto taking a customer through last week's changes to heating system and collecting the £2.5k. Finished off with a nice outside tap washer change and a sort out of the under sink waste plumbing. Followed by the whilst you're here can you tell me if I can split my bathroom in two adding an extra toilet and basin.

Nice easy finishing off new water supply to replace old steel feed tomorrow, as long as Northumbrian Water turn up. Looking for a short day.


Thursday cancelled today as they've just booked up to go away for a week from tomorrow. So looking at pulling the three jobs from Friday into Thursday and having another long weekend.

 

[SimonG]

The long weekend is on, Northumbrian Water didn't turn up. So extra busy tomorrow.

Then 3 days off, or as swmbo says, tome to work in the house.
