Spent most of the day in pouring rain repairing fence after high winds last night! Lovely!
Concrete support post sheared off at ground level so had to kango out the concrete below the post to concrete in a new one! Grrrrr!
Mostly repaired now tho.

I've committed to ensuite now - just ordered concealed shower, anthracite rad and valves, anthracite basin cabinet, tap and waste. Going for nice and dark walls and floor - like a bat cave! I personally hate bright bathrooms! If having a shower at night I'm winding down and entering sleep mode, first thing in morning I need waking up gradually!

One Day

I wasted 3hrs this morning looking for a leak in a shower a tiled 3 years ago. Customer claimed water pouring out of the ceiling below. I've never ever had a leak. Walls were tanked with ardex wp and taped to the tray with kerdi-fix. I poked my inspection camera up a few holes and couldn't find any evidence of water aside from the wet ceiling! Had my heating engineer call in to check it out too. Blow off valve on a faulty expansion tank was the cause. I'm just happy to be vindicated. Every day's a school day eh?

My day was good until I decided to latex a landing last thing after 4 pm after having stuck the riser in earlier in the day I dammed off all the gaps and poured the levelling compound it was looking good until the riser gave way and all the leveller started to run over the work ended up stopping the flow and cleaning up the mess doh!!!
