Apologies.

Hi, looking for a labour price to replace 8 rotten joists from this decking (please see attached). the joists are not located in one area, it’s pretty much all over the decking. How much would the labour cost be please? thanks

Hi everyone, I need an idea how much it will cost to replace the 8 rotten joists from this decking please. No materials, just labour. The joists are not just in a particular area, it’s all over. thanks

It’s just because I thought the BC won’t sign it off if the architect won’t sign it.

Ok, thank you.

Does that mean it won’t get signed off?

Hi, I'm wondering if someone could give me an advice. I had just an extension done and in the process of completion. Now, there are four people that need to sign it- client, builder and 2 planners (I believe it’s the architect and the engineer). I have contacted the architect saying that he won’t sign it as he wasn’t part of the building process. He originally wanted to be part of it from the beginning like overseeing it but of course with the price so I decided not to involve him. He said he would only sign it if he does some checking and of course comes with the fee. what is my stand on this one please? thanks

Thank you

Oh, it’s in Essex

Hi, How much would a joiner charge for this kitchen please? They all come in a flat pack. No plumbing, no electric and no tiling- just mainly carpentry works. thank you

She didn’t even say that when I forwarded the photo evidences. She just said that all the foundations/bases need inspection prior to pouring of the concrete. The groundworker will call her tomorrow and tell her the plan.

That’s the plan. I have told him to contact the bco tomorrow and mention what the plan is to expose the hole measurements. The groundworkers think I’m making this up as I said I’m getting another groundworkers to get the holes redug. They said, i know my concrete.

Yes. They know it because they’re the ones that done the foundation at the front. The dug the foundation, called the inspector and poured the concrete. Now, for the underpinning and concrete pads they didn’t bother to do it as they were in a rush to get it done and get paid.

Ok, im so stressed right now because of the underpinning and concrete pads in this current project we’re working on. Basically, I have hired a Groundworker company to undertake the underpinning and 2 concrete pads. I gave them the drawing and everything , agreed the measurements of the holes and eventually they dug them out, put mesh and poured the concrete. Now, this is where the problem begins. They poured the concrete without getting inspected by the BCO. The Groundworker forwarded me the images with tape measures (just for underpinning but none for concrete pads). I then forwarded the photos to the inspector and she then got back to me saying she needed to inspect the holes prior to pouring of the concrete. 😱😱😱😱 I then informed the ground worker about the reply and he’s not having it. He wants the payment. I told him I won’t be paying you for the job that needs redoing. He said you should understand that I paid materials and people. I made it clear to him that I won’t be paying him and worse case scenario is get a refund for my deposit. can someone please tell me what my stand on this? thanks

Thats the plan. Just leave the concrete lintel inside and use it for inner leaf. Will put the catnic and just put the blocks for the outer leaf. will see how this bricky will tackle this tomorrow.
