They're fine ta. 10 & 7 now and keeping us busy. Glad your lad's OK. Just goes to show how wrong how experts can be. Still a restaurateur?
no. Gave that up a bit ago. was renting premises of city council. They decided to sell up so wouldnt extend so pointless putting more money into it currently taking building contracts if you would believe it. Fell into it by accident whilst doing my own house up All fevered up today hence on here
on a serious note I was quoted £40k for a second story 2 room extension (block and render) and a loft conversion I am nearly done and including labour and materials have paid a third of that, using professionals and not dodgy foreigners anyone need work doing or want work giz a shout
Funny you should say that; I'm just watching a Ross Kemp program about builders hiring illegal immigrants
mate you should see them try it on. one fella came in asked for work, had all papers and a week later had been deported Last week had 3 poles (father son and sons maternal uncle) turn up and say they have loads of experience etc (they from EU so not illegal). I asked how much they charged and they gave me some rates. I laughed and asked them to toll it up for plaster a ceiling in an 11 x 11 room. Total £408. Told them to feck off back to Poland with those rates
A Pole quoted us a hundred pounds more than anyone else for a kitchen ceiling repair. Said we'd have to get our own skip, too (he recommended someone with -ski at the end of his name, naturally). Needless to say, we took our custom elsewhere.
My usual fellas wife has stage 4 cancer so wasnt working. So i decided to look elsewhere in the mean time Job was about £6k, an Irish fella I was recommended came along and said he could do it for around £3 and a half as a favour
Jip, what's the deal with my tags etc? Which dribbling failure do I need to interact with to have them re-instated?
