My joiner highly recommended a business to do the taping after my home refurbishment being changed for my disability.
For over a year if not longer, the taper wanted sizes, I sent the plans, they were rejected as not having sizes on, then the joiner sent sizes, months later I got half a price, ie half the job, accepted that asking why not all the job, the work was done well, so the taping guy was on site several times, and looked at the rest of the job.
I then asked for the price for the last few bedrooms, hall, bathroom etc, I was asked to supply details of windows etc I did this (I cannot use ladders) then I was send a request for sizes again, I got someone to work this out as best as possible, price came back more than the first job, I asked someone else, they said sizes wrong.
Told the taper guy they may be wrong, again sent plans, photos etc, got a curt reply need sizes.
Two channels in a wall also needed plastering / filling where cables were fitted but the tape guy says he cannot do those, so will have to find another plasterer for that tiny job.
So I still do not have a quote for the last part of the job.
My question is,
if the taper has been on site why did he not measure the place?
Is it the job of a customer to measure everything, I did not measure the wood for joiner, the stairs, the doors, the carpet, cable, slates, windows etc etc, why is it not the job of a taper to measure and give a price?
I have been so upset by all this, in my day contractors were profesional, courteous and helpful, come on lads be safe and kind
