here we are after the second visit, opinions please!

Not that I’m aware of, some of the first quotes came in at 20% more than this one which I’d accepted. I’ll have to beg to differ on that one. There was no existing upvc on any of my Fascias nor soffits before this work began. Update: tradesman has shown up to work this morning and begun...

Are you saying this refusal is to my advantage? Yes all communication is happening over email so have in writing “With regards to the independent contractor, they have been brought into the matter and therefore I require their assessment as this is key evidence in this dispute. I cannot do...

I have now had another roofing company inspect the work, and they agree that the whole lot needs to be done again. And stated “it’s a mess” Having communicated this to the original contractor - he has now redacted his offer to come and do remedial works without having sight of a written...

Tradesman has now replied and offered a date to come and “sort and rectify” the works. Consumer act says I must give him the opportunity to, but really lost confidence in his abilities. How can I ensure that the work is done properly and any covered rotten wood is discoverable.

Here’s some before pictures for any debate ongoing about rotten boards and soffit vents

Thanks to everyone for your input and advice so far! The tradesman has offered to correct and asked for a list of my concerns. Having checked the original quote and agreement I have sent: 1. Guttering fall/drop is incorrect and water is not draining correctly. 2. Downpipes have not been...

Quoted £2880 (excluding scaffolding) found on Mybuilder Just preparing to shoot over an email and some photos, any advice on specifics which I should be sure to include would be greatly appreciated.

Oh my gosh, thank you Harry! Can you help me with the correct language to use with the installer have this rectified and to mitigate my losses? The tradesman has had a 50% deposit upfront (allegedly for materials), and plans to return tomorrow to clear the rubbish and some left over materials...

More photos here if anyone can pick up what’s needs correcting Tradesman is asking to settle the bill and I’m concerned if I do so that there will be no incentive to correct these mistakes during the time frame that my scaffold is paid for.

Been up the scaffold today - photos of the guttering level below. It’s already pooling water.

Thanks Catlad. Can you tell me specifics so that my tradesman can’t counter and say expansion gap etc etc

I think they’re too short, and not even all equally short. All the pvc is new. I’ll try and get up there tomorrow and upload some pictures

I’ve just paid for scaffolding to have all my Fascias, soffits and guttering replaced and caped with new pvc, I feel like the finish on the soffits are hugely different to my neighbour and that the gutter is wavy and missing end pieces? Is this reasonable as to how a finish should look? TIA
