It is a rather large roof at 350sq m but this quote was still well off our estimation. I was keen to use this mob as they also do the no fuss, no paint, lifetime guarantee cladding ... just a bit dear! any ideas gratefully recieved! k Re: Perth OBers ... roof plumbing recommendations 2Sep 09, 2010 10:25 pm Is that gutters and down pipes only, or roof sheeting and gutters and down pipes.

Re: Perth OBers ... roof plumbing recommendations 4Sep 09, 2010 10:44 pm Just looked at your plans. That's obviously the entire roof. We were quoted about $70-75 m2 for supply and install anticon, sheeting, gutters, down pipes and flashing. Yours is going to cost a bit more as it is a fairly complex roof. But I'd think that you could do better than your quote.

I will be hunting down a few more quotes! I am told it is a big roof, but not so tricky as it is one big straight thing ... but you know they see North Coogee and the cash register goes keching!!!!!!!

I can't recommend, but I can warn, without prejudice, as they say. Beware of ..........Sweet and charming at the beginning, didn't keep dates, didn't keep promises, tried to provoke me to a fight, tried to steal my downpipes, had to threaten him with police to get him off the site. With the tin roofing, make sure that your battens are screw fixed, not just nailed; it's a good idea to have wire mesh supporting anticon (I've heard that it's BCA requirement, but didn't confirm that), so it doesn't sag.

I was tempted to grab something and have a go at him, but he's 25 years younger than me..... I should've used PM instead of posting that warning, so I've removed the name.

Otherwise I suspect, having not seen the original post, there would have been an official warning and removal of said post or editing of it to remove names. 5 4035 1 4276 Thats fine, but he still needs to provide an account of the wroks. otherwise you could judt demand whatever for whatever. Im ptetty sure his lawyer will not progress if… 6 8188 |
