    Agree, most of the tradesman are pretty pathetic in this country, than there are some excellent which you got no chance to get because they are booked half a year ahead!
    The other way is go to Youtube and just do the job yourself... far easier, costs nothing,no frustration, you can do to your liking and again you can do it much faster than it usually takes to find someone to do it for you...

    I'm a ground maintenance contractor and am booked all year, but I've no hesitation telling people I'm too busy and can't do the work. It's business 1-2-3...turn up, quote or don't quote, but don't keep people waiting. It's not that hard!
