When I build my house, I am going to supervise the WHOLE thing to make sure it's perfect.
Our bathroom is in total upheaval because of one cracked tile. The man doesn't know how to grout the bathroom, and yet he knows how to make a huge mess and splatter cement-type stuff EVERYWHERE -where it should not be. He also left a thin layer of dust/cement which covered all the bench tops and everything (still in the bathroom).
And that's not the only thing.
Floors had to be checked several times when installing floorboards.
When the leaking taps in the shower were fixed, they had to be checked too, and the painted walls, and skirting boards.
And the blinds had to be sent back a few times.
At least we painted the winwows and fence ourselves so there were no problems there but seriously, these people call themselves professionals.
Give me two days, three days max, and I could learn and do a better job than them (where plumbing is not involved).
I have learnt to always check everything. Whether it's buying furniture, or renovating...anything.
Oh yeah, last time the paint guys spilt paint all over their van and our driveway.. White paint on our navy grey driveway, not a pretty site. Admittedly they did clean it up and not charge us extra for more paint so that was probably the only instant that wasn't minded.
au revoir. xo
