Saintly Fish Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Scaffolders arriving this morning (already late, typical) to put up the scaffold around the front of our house ready for a front loft conversion. We did the back around 10 years ago but never got the permission to do the front. Now we have so let the fun begin... As it is now.

Geoff Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Good luck with the works Neil, how long do you think it will take? I am not surprised the scaffolders were a bit late - I understand that is the norm for the breed! Geoff.

They did turn up at 8.30 and stayed for 5 hours. Just the two of them and did a good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
