They say you can't bake a cake without breaking eggs!. Well, there was a lot of eggs broken on this one!!!
This gave us every curveball it could. Unfortunately, the previous owners had been keen on DIY, but not very good at it and left our customers with a whole array of hidden issues in both the kitchen and utility room.
All walls had to be sheeted over with plasterboard before a full skim on all walls and ceiling inc removing all pvc trims from around door and window.
The electrician had to figure out all the wiring and work his magic ๐ฉ once again to rectify and also install new downlights.
Complete floor needed lifted due to insufficient framing and flooring having been fitted incorrectly. Once this was lifted we then found multiple issues with the pipework below the floor. Incorrectly run waste pipes, kinked radiator pipes, and needed to resite the mains water, hot, cold and waste below the floor.
New framing installed and floor fully insulated before new floorboards fitted and new 9mm ply ready for the customer to have vinyl flooring fitted. New outside tap, window sill, skirtings and facings.
Lots more little bits and pieces needed done and I always feel bad for the customer when this happens but fortunately they understood that it could not be left that way and that they now have all issues rectified for many years to come.
Again, none of this would be possible without a top team of trades we are lucky to work along side. Huge thanks as always to
