Not too guilty however as this should be every-ones experience not the exception.

Guess that means no tiling tomorrow. I had a thought a couple of weeks ago that we won't see tiling until the 7 month mark, it's looking more and more likely. I was hoping with today being the only dry day forecast in the next week that we might see painters. They don't seem nearly as desperate to get rid of the scaff as they say. https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_ ... are_type=t Re: JG King modified Heywood - Render 1069Sep 26, 2017 4:53 pm So our frustrated SS has confirmed that the waterproofing isn't done so no tile meeting tomorrow. Waterproofing should happen tomorrow (heard that a few times before). He didn't know when tiling would start now but will let us know. We are meant to be going away on the weekend, it's not clear at this point if we need to cancel, very frustrating. He thought meeting most likely Monday, but could be Friday or Saturday. I'll be surprised if it's within the next 2 weeks at this rate. Very sick of being mucked around. Scaff is coming down soon, they will put it back up when the painters come near the end. We are near the end!! We're supposedly getting carpet in 2 weeks for god sake!! Another jgking skillion near here was painted at the same time as the interior while they had the scaff up! This just sounds like another waste of time to me. If that scaff is costing anywhere near what they claim there's no way they would have left it just sitting there for another week and a half. He's still waiting to hear from Haymes re their opinion on how many coats of paint we got. I can see this going nowhere. They're been going around in circles on this one, yet they all agree based on the timeline we can't have got three coats. Re: JG King modified Heywood - Render 1071Sep 26, 2017 6:08 pm well it does sound like they think only 2 coats they just trying to prove it now. you are having the worst run with trades her, you really wonder how they find them.

Exactly https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_ ... are_type=t Re: JG King modified Heywood - Render 1073Sep 26, 2017 6:33 pm emts well it does sound like they think only 2 coats they just trying to prove it now. you are having the worst run with trades her, you really wonder how they find them. I doubt they'll prove it. It's going to end with "we can't prove it" I can see it now. Apparently the gadget the haymes used to test with has been decommissioned . Our SS has also said our paint is good compared to some of his other ones, I'd hate to see those. https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_ ... are_type=t JG King modified Heywood - Render 1075Sep 27, 2017 4:31 pm So tile meeting is scheduled for 8am Monday. I went down to the house just before 3 to make sure waterproofers had been today, and they were just arriving, hopefully not for the first time . SS was going to check on the job this afternoon or tomorrow morning and take the electrical plan to see just what the sparkies had missed. We mentioned that not all the holes had been cut last walkthrough but we thought maybe we should mention it again since some of the holes that are missing will be under the tiles and it was like he was hearing it for the first time 🤦♀️ Re: JG King modified Heywood - Render 1077Sep 27, 2017 8:12 pm We don't normally get one. They could really save some money and trouble if they did have meetings at key points like electrical and tiles. I was told at our Beaumonts appointment to give the tilers one instruction, since I know we're not allowed to communicate with trades I asked our SS to pass it on and he suggested we just meet the morning they start https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_ ... are_type=t Re: JG King modified Heywood - Render 1078Sep 28, 2017 8:34 am Waterproofing done! Finally! SS obviously hadn't been yet because the back door is still wide open .

No new holes where cut where they were missing, they just fitted off the holes that were already there so plenty missing. Points that should be USB don't seem to be and the downlights are not only the wrong colour but completely the wrong downlight! They have used a lower wattage, lower lumens light. Seriously what were these people on when our purchase orders were done?! We can't take a trick!!
