It's just Dublin. There is no standard on 90% of the jobs there.
What do they look like?

Why is that? No clerk or works down there or what's the Craic. Not like the property is sold in the cheap, should be good prices on it, enough to leave it good and still make good money you'd have thought....

It's all small builders doing extensions all over Dublin. You wouldn't believe the s**t that gos on. No clerk of Works on them job's. Even the dubs say it will do it's Dublin. No s**t.

Thats s**t that. Mistakes can happen, and nobody is perfect, but tradesmen should take a certain degree of pride in their work and have certain standards that they keep to themselves. The problem everywhere is the good ones get their prices driven down by ones that don't give a f**k and leave a hash. Greedy builders wanting it done for as little as possible no matter what shape it is. Sad.

I did a job about 3 to 4 years ago for a builder. I want to see the job. 1 room was skimmed. It was bad. I said to the builder if I do this job for u I'll reskim that room. Why he said it's fine. I just said it's up to u. He said my plasterer is out with his back. I just said look if I skim the rest of the house it will show that room up. It's fine he said. I just said no problem but don't think your client will see it that way. He just said they don't know what they are looking at. I got the job. Skimmed the house and did the sand and cement out side. All the other trades and foreign Labourers commented how good the work was. But the builder never said anything. Anyway got paid no problem. 2 weeks after I get a phone call. I need u to come skim that other room. I said am busy it will be about 2 weeks. He said I need it done as soon as possibl. I just said you should have done it when I told you to. I then said look I'll do it Saturday to get you out of a hole. Did it. Got paid. He has never used me again. I reckon he was back using the other bloke that was trying to plaster. Some c**ts just don't want good work. And that is Dublin on most jobs.

You'd think should need be decent standard in city too for word of mouth counts surely. Surely rough c**ts won't get as much repeat business, or will end up with a bad name, whereas if u leave good obviously get better name and more chance of recommendations?
