goodwithsaving said:Expecting my buyer to pull out this week over no roof warranty, just before exchange. Oh joy. (I stated in the Fixtures and Fittings that there wasn't one). It's a perfectly good roof and not at all a shoddy job - I just feel I can't win with anybody despite trying my very hardest to do things right
I can't do this anymore
