[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 387221, member: 6969"] nothing unusual there then. Sort of related to the building trade. We are selling out last rental house at the moment. I let the new owners carpet fitter in in advance of completion this Friday. Went in today for a look. He's lined the kitchen floor with plywood first before the lino, the kick boards no longer fit, so he's just left them off. One of the doors is left off, I assume it no longer fits now there's laminate flooring in the living room. To fit said laminate flooring he ripped off all the skirting and fitted new. not painted, not even got the nail holes sealed, or the joint to the wall sealed. There was a blank plate where an old storage heater point used to be, Now the new skirtings taller so it doesn't fit, so it wasn't, leaving a hole in the wall. I think his name must be Arthur (as in Arthur job) It will be interesting to see if he's been back by Friday to complete the job. If not it's not my problem as I didn't ask for the work. [/QUOTE]
