Hello,

I wondered if anyone was able to have a look at the three photos I've attached (of a job completed yesterday) and let me know if this is acceptable?

It looks a very poor finish to me. And while I appreciate it's not in a prime spot, it looks like a lack of effort has gone in to both the finish and filling the gaps.

Any thoughts/ comments anyone has would be very welcomed as I don't have any experience with this type of trade.

Many thanks

Not too good to be honest...without trying to panic you I'm afraid.
 
Thanks to you all for your reply. Your thoughts have given me the reassurance to know I’m not overreacting and will seek other professional advice before I pay the outstanding amount.
 
Do not pay, Looking more at the third picture I see something bad.

Barthy can likely confirm he seems up on it

I see a bodge of a lead back gutter split on the corner in an attempt to dress it round the corner. better still it does not even go up under the slates.. busted by the way
 
Thank you for your thoughts. I’ve been told it just needs a wire brush and they will tidy up?
 
I agree with datarebal it is a bodge and unfortunately it gives tilers a bad name
I've always been taught to get the bottles out on lead details...I know it can be done without a flame but I'm the first to admit it takes too long and I'm more than satisfied with my welding.
Hope you sort it.
 
Here's a job I carried out for a (well established) builder....
Leadwork and firewalls only.
The pointing was done by his lads I'm pleased to say
Hope this sheds some light on your job mate.

Laziness I expect, it's what happens when builders can do jobs for 100$ cheaper...proof is in the pudding!
