I paid the bill since I was the one asking for it to be done.I didn't hear any complaints from the neighbour before they moved out, so I assumed they were happy. I don't suppose the new owner has any idea it was ever done.If it sticks, force it.
If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.0 -
It was bugging me, so I had to rummage through my mountains of old paperwork. The bill to fix the roof was £2200. That did not include the scaffolding, as I was already paying that to someone else as they were replacing the fascias.
