This means we will be cleaning up all of their mess! We did say no thanks, you can clean all of the wet areas and we will think about the rest depending on the discount offered! Re: New House - Tradies Using Loo?? 56Mar 17, 2012 10:56 am As a builder myself, I think it is extremely unprofessional for the builder to remove site toilet before handover and a show of disrespect to the owner. Builder is paid to provide temporary facilities until the end and there is no excuse.

I would try to get vengeance by going to their displays homes etc.. and doing an 'upper decker' - that's where you do your business in the cistern. Re: New House - Tradies Using Loo?? 58Apr 18, 2012 1:40 pm if you are that concerned get them a port aloo , im not a tradie but have helped on occasions i think as long as they leave it clean it should not be an inconvenience if there pigs then that's a different story . In my experience the nicer you are the better they work and driving to go to the toilet will only delay your home being finished . Re: New House - Tradies Using Loo?? 59Apr 25, 2012 10:34 am Its not the tradies fault if the portaloo is removed. Been human myself I understand when you gotta go you gotta go and holding sometimes isnt an option. The tradies would of left a mess because there is no brush or paper to clean... I more feel sorry for the tradies. Im sure the people complaining have a lovely toilet 30 seconds from there office desk always available. End of the day you will always have friends, family and friends of friends over after handover so it doesnt really matter if the toilet is used before hand over. As long as it is clean and respectable (and in brand new condition) on settlement day it shouldnt matter. http://lindeman28.blogspot.com - Our building blog Re: New House - Tradies Using Loo?? 60Apr 25, 2012 5:17 pm There have been no workers onsite for 6 weeks & with all the rain the porta-loo on our site has sunk into the ground onto quite an angle, not sure where tradies will go when work does resume, most of the building sites near us are close to completion so that's not an option...
