Right…
A job that should have taken a couple days, has taken around 3 weeks to finish completely, because of the stupid bloody weather!!! Boiling hot, rain, hailstone, thunderstorms, give us a break!!!!
The customer has wanted his patio repointing for quite some time, however it’s not exactly a small area… We came to an agreement which section to start with, the rest can be slowly done as and when the customer decides. Several flags needed rebedding in the process, if I recall properly from memory around 10. Dad let me loose with the trowel, don’t think I did too bad for an apprentice😉 Or as dad calls me, his PA (I call him a cheeky b**tard if anyone dares agree with me)
The other issue was his pond. The customer had previously made a makeshift edge with some feather edge board, but wanted a change. After speaking gibberish and waving his hands around a lot (we love you really Stuart Little), he finally got the words out of what he wanted instead around the pond! And he was over the moon with the outcomes🙏🏼❤️
