Hi,
I had one of the "rated person" carpenter do some work who has done the shoddiest of jobs ever. I was being silly not watching over him.
Anyway, here is the problem. We were getting new banisters and newel post fitted as only part of the staircase had banisters. He cut off the old post saying he will fix the new one in same place by making a hole and fitting the post in the hole. The post was very wobbly and as the ****** hasn't shown up to fix it for few weeks now I opened it up only to find a flat post screwed to a big hole and as a result no grip. The picture says it all.
Any thoughts on what is the best way to get this sorted without breaking the bank?
Thanks
Neeraj
