Sorry, i know this isn't exactly DIY, but there are some very knowledgeable people on this forum.
I really do like DIY, and try to do what I can myself. However, I paid someone to install a bathroom last year, and there have been a few problems. The work is 'guaranteed' for a year, but if a tradesman just won't come out (many phone calls, many excuses, many days waiting in for me etc), what does a guarantee actually mean? If I pay someone else to do the work and bill him, he can just refuse to pay, can't he?
Sorry. Just feeling a bit overwhelmed trying to correct plumber's errors. I've tried with not much success to correct the work myself, so I've probably scuppered any guarantee anyway. Though had no choice really, as we had waste water running into the garden and a young baby to think of.
thanks
