After messing about on machinery the previous week, it was back to some proper work for Stu and me. It was our last week on our job in Bury, and it was a case of working through the snagging list that we had produced, and also working through the snagging list of the clients.
Stu worked through the list, fitting the final extractor ducting, applying filler to the walls where it was required, tidying up the garden area etc. I focused on plumbing in the client’s toilet and sink, and then installing their shower enclosure in the bathroom. The Building Inspector came to carry out his final visit on the Wednesday. The build passed with flying colours, and the Completion Certificate will be issued shortly. By Friday we were all done, we just had a couple of trips to do in the van removing the last of the scaffold boards and security fencing.
We had scheduled between 12 and 16 weeks for the build, and we were all completed in week sixteen. Not bad timing and we all got a case of lager from the client for our efforts, cheers!
We enjoyed our time on the job, and it really makes a difference when you have a good working relationship with a client. We left happy with the job we had done, but most importantly the client was more than happy with the job we had done for them, and I wish them every happiness in their new extension.
Next week, we start all over again on a new build near Ramsey. Wind, rain and snow is predicted weather wise. I love my job!
