we've been on a 9 month refurb job, which has still got alot to run.!

The jobs backwards, because even though theres part of the house completed there are rooms that haven't been ripped out yet!

we've been installing a megaflow unvented cyl and Worcester conventional boiler , about 3,500 grands worth,(not including about 500 for pipe, fittings and controls.

The last connection was made Friday, job was immaculate . Pipes straight and clipped, basically top class job.

Customer finds its all been nicked.
Cut out carefully with only 2 pipes bent.
Pipework on wall hardly touched but all fittings and expansion tanks took also.
Its really weird because it took five of us to hump it into the attic, basically 3rd floor! And we struggled. So how did they do it , with limited time?

they've got the boiler and cyl down and had a walk around house , picked and chosen what other stuff they want, like shower valves, but left 25meter run of lead, buckets of copper, copper pipe and on.............

They broke into 2nd floor sash window?????? Ladders?????
When directly below at ground level is the ****tiest door ever, you could blow it down???

Neighbours heard something at 9pm and again at 2am but never thought nothing of it?????

If the customer listened and ran the job how we advised maybe this wouldn't of happened.
But he wanted to do it his way.....rip a room or too out make good and finish then next room and so on.
Instead of gutting whole house ,then doing work in stages.

Police have arrested someone local but hes not speaking!
His prints where on window sill where hes dragged himself up....Muppett!!!

Cops cant do a thing, and customers not insured because he thought "there nothing in the house " so why bother ....Ooooops :oops: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

First rule of house refurbishment here in manchester is that the boiler and heating equipment is always delivered and fitted right at the end.

Once ran a small site in Hackney (conversion of coach house to 2-bed dwelling) which required the front to have a bay roof covered with lead. Guess how long it lasted after being installed. :cry:
