Re: Hyndburn Homes - shower install
Anyone taken a temperature reading at Tinker Brook lately?
Still no washing facilities after 9 days.

I take it that this two day job is rubber ducked again.

Re: Hyndburn Homes - shower install
The 'boss' showed up today, which was lucky, because he is only working two days a week at the mo (got to get his holiday days used up before end of March)

The 'plan of action' has been changed again, so they have dug a trench in the new floor that was laid a few days ago.

This 'boss' is an Iti (explains a lot to me)
I think he previously was sacked from a brewery catering position.

Re: Hyndburn Homes - shower install
I would be putting a complaint in, it is not satisfactory to have no proper washing facilities for so long. How are you managing? Can't understand why they can't employ decent companies to do the work. At the place I am going to they have put new double glazed windows in twenty nine flats in just five days.

Re: Hyndburn Homes - shower install
For the past two days I have been inundated with workmen - wonderful
The 'boss' hasn't shown his face - wonderful
The workmen have been organising the job by consulting each other and planning it between themselves - beautifully

It looks as though I will be having a shower by Thursday, and actually had a wash in a basin this morning.

useless things , more effort than what they are worth , if you use your shower at least once a day the things never really dry out and you get black mould growing on the underside around the suction cups , then again maybe its me not cleaning the tub often enough
