Another Taylor Wimpy leak fixed in the Community Centre. I am, genuinely, surprised that this one held on for so long before letting go. Always fun on a bank holiday.

Small repair job carried out today. Not helped out by the builders on Picket 20, who decided it was a good idea to use CT1 industrial adhesive to glue the shower screen support to the wall, rather than just screwing it up, like the instructions say! šŸ¤¬. The customer had a tiny leak down the back of the bath, and it was all down to the shower screen being installed whilst the plastic protection film was still on the bath, and that has allowed water to just creep under the door hinge, to an area where there was no silicone. As I couldn't get the frame off, I had to put silicone around the inside of the frame. It will work, but is not the right way to do it. There was also a 6mm gap between the bath and the tiles, so it took a lot to fill it.

Today I conducted the most disgusting house clearance I have had the displeasure to be involved with. Tenants left owing Ā£18k in rent and it's going to take the fat end of Ā£25k to get the house into a saleable or rental condition. After more than 18 months of fighting the landlord managed to secure the eviction. Even then he could get access to the property.

The tenants left, leaving 4 cats in the property, with no food, but they did leave the taps running, so they had water. They cats were alone for weeks, before the balif got the property open and the resulting mess was vomit inducing.

We spent they whole of today, removing the horror of what has been left.

Back again tomorrow, to finish the empty and rip all the carpets out.

A small Kitchen splashback completed on Friday. Simple but effective upgrade to the look of this little kitchen.
