There was an exchange of emails with the builder late yesterday regarding my concerns about the plasterboard finishing work that was done a few days ago. The builder assured me that ‘it would be alright on the night’ so to speak but I never accept such assurances, because with building work, if it’s not it’s too late.<\/p>\n
So I suggested that I would choose several places on the walls where I was particularly unhappy with the work for the plasterer to show me the finish that he could achieve and left it at that without having received a reply.<\/p>\n
The plasterers turned up this morning with the builder’s clerk of works and I explained my concerns about the work that had been done in a conversation that became, let’s say, somewhat agitated. However, the plasterer was confident that everything was going to be fine and without being asked, proceeded to demonstrate to me in two places which I’d said were particularly poor how the finished job would come out.<\/p>\n
And it was fine and I told him so. So afterwards we were all smiles and everyone was still friends, which was a great relief all round, especially to me in view of the time that keeps being lost. As I type this the two plasterers are busy working so the interior will soon be ready for the floor levelling screed to go down after which things should really begin to speed up.
