Morning All,
Have a look at THIS site:
http://www.a2constructions.co.uk/
(there IS some information there, believe me, look through the headings).

This was a Polish guy working for a builder friend who now works for 'himself'.

Some of the photos look suspiciously like work done by my friend in Shipley.

Very naughty, but is it typical of the nationality? The heading would suggest so which is possibly a bit unfair.

oh dear,i wouldn't be putting work like that on a website

the drains were a shambles,those 300mm ICs are only supposed to be maximum 600mm deep, plus numerous other fails
where were the bolts on the new rafters?
plastering didn't look clever
its all subjective but didn't look much kop from the photies
