I’m in the middle of having a bathroom fitted. Old (very very old) bathroom has been taken out. Much of the piping is lead (plumbers knew that was the case).
No-one has turned up at all this week. The more experienced plumber of the two involved in the job is supposed to be sorting out the lead pipes so that the suite can be plumbed in. Less experienced will do the more straightforward stuff. Neither of them turn up when they say they will.
So, I have an empty bathroom and a house full of bathroom suite with nowhere to go. It’s lucky I’m not living there at the moment.
I’m fast coming to the conclusion that, for whatever reason, they don’t want to do the job and I’m going to have to find someone else
What I’m wondering is, is the lead pipe issue something that is really difficult to deal with? They told me it is a bit of a difficult and intricate job, but didn’t sound like it was impossible. Am I going to find it hard to find another plumber to do the job because it's difficult? Will I never be able to move into my house because no-one can fit me a bathroom?
Any advice gratefully received. I’m off for a glass of wine and a good cry.
