What we all working on this week ?

[king of pipes]

I have a insurance job to try and rescue a poorly installed quad shower the customer wants to save the tiling if possible and has a few spare so fingers crossed it may work , the loss adjuster allowed em £1500 that will just about cover materials. Kop

Squeezed in a 3 day job into two due to resits

ignore the existing wonky pipes

Then to be told the he had changed the nozzle and cleaned the baffles.
I asked whether it was condensing or standard and who normally services it.
Oh I bought it second hand, fitted it myself but it wont work.
Do one! I replied. Not interested in sorting out your $hit.
But i need it to work.

Don't you just love people who think its acceptable to fiddle with oil burners on their own. Farmers are usually the worst. Someone I grew up with has an oil boiler, I offered my assistance several times and he chucked it back in my face. He told me one day oh I ran out of oil, to which I replied do you know how to bleed the system? His response was yes, I've done it myself and improved the efficiency by 15% 😂🤦🏻‍♂️.

Absolute s*** day today, all day for a effin immersion heater!!!!
Firstly the drain off wouldn’t open, then the gatevalve wouldn’t close, had other issues with leaks due to fittings, immersion wouldn’t budge, the tried to clear an airlock that turned out to be a faulty float valve. 😡😡😡😩😩😩

One of the times I wanted to give it all up 😒

Works a bit quiet for me at the moment so I am doing lots of crappy little jobs

 

[Harvest Fields]

I love the little jobs. Keeps the brain going. Is that a lead pipe? Are them Philmac fittings any good?

I find it hard to organise my day as you don’t know how long it will take, then I end up not earning much.
Its black alkathene and yes the universal philmac fittings are excellent.

and then you finish early and phoning round to see whose in / availability

 

[king of pipes]

I'm like you H I love a little job I'd rather do them 10 of them rather than one big job I probably earn more if I'm honest , servicing can earn well and although brain numbingly boring it's totally necessary small faults get picked up and repaired 4 of them a days is £400 + . Kop

 

[Harvest Fields]

I’ve been on this yesterday and today. Stupid concrete floors.
