is the world mad....OR IS IT JUST ME?????

[CJ CERAMICS]

hi all
Got a call on saturday evening from a lady asking me to measure and quote for her bathroom walls she had got my number from a previous customer of mine and was extremely impressed with the standard of my work . No problem i said i can call Monday evening after work.
fantastic she said i'll have the kettle on

Got another call late sunday evening (10.30) to be precise to ask if i could possibly call on Tuesday instead as they had had a flood in the bathroom:yikes: when her husband had removed the bath panel he found the waste pipe still in its plastic bag under the bath:yikes::yikes: so a full bath of water went straight on to the floor under the bath:yikes: luckily it is a bungalow so only damage down stairs. They were having the plumber back on monday to explain why he had not fitted it.

No probs i said Tuesday will be fine.

Got a call this afternoon saying very sorry for messing about but while the plumber was there fitting the waste pipe he had forgot to fit he mentioned that he can also tile but didnt bother to take photos of his work as it wasnt his proper trade, so they had decided to have him tile the bathroom and wouldn't be needing me to quote:yikes::yikes:

[White Room]

Could have been worse, was in a room where the plumber forget to connect the hot pipe on the heating system in the ceiling, it was soooooooooo like a sauna

 

[DHTiling]

Customers like this really baffle me..A plumber makes a major mistake like that and still they trust him with a trade thats not his normal day to day thing...:mad2:

Good luck i say...😛rrr:

:yikes: Plumbers and tiling.............................don't like hearing both mentioned in the same sentence.

Sorry plumbers.......😳

 

[davy_G]

[Diamond Pool Finishers]

some plummer !!!! cant waight for the tiling???:mad2: you couldn't make it up:yikes:

 

[faithhealer]

forgot to put the waste on, speechless.
Know a customer who has used the same plumber three times and had three serious leaks!!

 

[White Room]

Why do they do that:yikes:

 

[Fekin]

Plumber and tiling go together as well as nitroglycerin and bungy jumping in regards to this so called bodger :drool5:

 

[Rob Z]

CJ, that really takes the cake.

Speechless here in Virginia!:yikes:

 

[stevee]

totally amazing bit of false economy,......in a couple of weeks ,stick your card thru the door,steve

 

[Hawkofeagles]

I can't wait to see what will happen in a few weeks. I bet CJ will be getting a call to ask for his services putting it right.

Isn't checking for leaks the most important thing you should do in plumbing :mad2:

 

[bathroomboy]

Was his horse signwritten lol, how anyone can fit a bath with out connecting the waste baffles me, how did he run the taps and flush the pipework.

Oh my. They're having a plumber who cocked up his primary trade do the tiling! haaaaahahaha, I've not heard something like that for some time.

 

[Falcone]

wow...scratching my head at this one. :mad2:

as Jim Morrison said - People are strange!!

 

[bassman]

:mad2::mad2::mad2: they would probably have their drive tarmac by 2 blokes in a ten year old transit that had "some gear left over from another job" 20 year guarantee or until the vans out of site!!!!
