Recent work

[lutonlagerlout]

what went wrong haggi
we had another 2 jobs pulled from under us recently
thing is if you ask them to sign a contract they get all twitchy,but if they dont they can pull out at any time till the start
we have a big one starting in 2 weeks and that will see us for 3 months,have bought 10,000 bricks for it and if he pulls out its curtains

anyway back to now
the guiness tree is in blossom


one for you older fellas,my muck hod ,which has been safely stored for ooowww 15 years or so


160 M2 of geogrid which has been nicely clogging up the lock up for 2 years


chimney breast removed in knebworth


door cut out and stitch drilled in knebworth


roof on and front bricked up ready for window (was fitted today but no camera)


remember the LLL steel? thats it up high on the right

found those rubber ones with the double filters are good for that sort of work. Those monkey faced jobs are a waste of time

Chuff me , that's bodgery of the highest order . Surprised they could get so close to the wall with those clown shoes on

[dig dug dan]

huge unequivocal FAIL

it must be amusing to see the customers face when they try to explain the failed job, and the fact they turned you down first time round!!

at the end of the day you get what you pay for....!.

In our game the multi national main contractors etc used to take 5 quotes and dismiss the highest and lowest and then choose between the 3 on who they wanted to do the job, now they just choose the lowest and then complain about the standard of service they receive.
