Cowboy builders?

(1/6) > >>

Landlord at the house we live in decided we needed a new kitchen and bathroom. Great news we thought, but what a nightmare it has been, and talk about bodging! The electrician came to do the wiring, cut chases in the plaster for the wiring, and then the kitchen fitters came in and mounted the units before the plasterer and flooring people came. Result is a total mess, the plasterers won't be able to do the areas behind the cabinets, and it seems to be very bad practice to fit the base units before the flooring. What do you guys and girls think? Do they qualify as Cowboy builders?

Nurse Julie:
I think they are definitely worth a nomination for the title 'Cowboy Builders' !!!. It makes me mad when piss poor planning ruins a job, it's just not necessary. Is the kettle working though Hairy ? I can live without anything but, not a kettle  ;D ;D ;D

This lot make Laurel and Hardy look professional! >:(

Nurse Julie:
Bloody hell, what a bodge.

hairygit:
Guess what, nobody has turned up today to get on with the kitchen, it's just a total mess, we can't get on putting anything back in the kitchen, it's all stacked up in the living room! Better than that, a plumber turned up to start the bathroom, but had no idea what he was supposed to be doing, had to phone his supervisor to find out. So he removed the bath and sink, and disappeared, with no idea when they will be back!
