Even more annoying; all our door hinges were stolen yesterday. SO now all the doors need to be re-hung as well. We are feeling again it wont be ready by the end of the build time.

Pic p 318Sep 18, 2010 7:11 pm Our last build they stole all the doors, bathroom vanity, bath and random pasterboard. Our neibours caught them in the act so called the police - the police turned up 6 hours later, their response was "builders have insurance for this stuff". But hinges... c'mon!
