What we all working on this week ?

[king of pipes]

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

They're about £415+VAT trade. When you think you don't need a shower + taps it ain't bad.

 

[EvilDrPorkChop]

Not too Bad

That's not the one with the bath filler, about another £100 on top.

[ShaunCorbs]

Still finding frost damage

Little tsat took me a full day to find this little fecker was loosing air pressure but couldn’t find where had to turn the water on
And wait an hour

Another bathroom upgrade started this week splash panels on two walls for a large shower cubical , it all stripped out and patching up well under way , a new floor going down plasterer due early doors next week 👍. Kop

 

[Ric2013]

Are you able to drill a 6" hole in a wall for me? This became fit and wire a heat-recovery extract fan. Seemed decent quality, but not installer-friendly. I have suspicions the plate heat exchanger is too small to do a lot, but customer supplied it, so ho hum.

 

[SimonG]

Not work, but cracking night.

My day being a spark and look no rubbish 😀

[Deleted member 120897]

Still same old same old for me, breakdowns slowing down for various reasons so safety checks to fill the rest of my time - Sooooo mundane.

 

[king of pipes]

Pushing to get this completed may happen ?? Shower glass tomorrow then just units to sort out toilet, basin and wall 😉👍

 

[king of pipes]

Damages and missing parts put pay to finishing today kin B&Q at least the showers complete and working customer is sound about it.
Have a great bank holiday chaps the weather forecast is descent so hopefully we can get out and about. Kop
