I hope things work out for you, and at the end of the day, they have to be told that they cant expect to get away with all this mess.

North east essex- Why
Cos I would have offered to do it for you
He has now informed me that they will not be doing the lounge, wants us to rip all the plasterboard & coving down & put new ones up before he will come back & skim it. Reckons the room is too big.
I cant see the point of that at all? How much did they price for doing the lounge if you dont mind me asking? |Theres an outside chance I could do it for you (without lines, splashes and plastered plants) :rotfl:
Im in Manchester though, have a look here www.myplasterer.com0 -

£100 for the lounge, not having used a plasterer before it sounded really good. It's L shaped & the longest wall is 24'.
I have stopped one of there cheque's. Just got home & the bloke is not happy, said they would be round tomorrow night to look at the problem & to have a chat. Sounds a bit sinister.if i had known then what i know now0 -

Is this the second job they were coming back to do?
Did you get any money back off them, or are you still holding onto the second cheque?0
