Well, it's almost 3 weeks since we started and our bathroom is still not complete! (Big sigh!)
Within our first week we had delays: The tile and bathroom company delivered the wrong bath, and then had to order the correct one. And we had to wait.... The plumber needed the bath to see where to install the pipes, the builder needed the plumber to be finished, and the tiler needed all the others to be done before he could start.
Ok, so we eventually got the bath (a spa bath) - minus the heater..... So we had to wait for the heater to be installed! And then they could begin with the tiling...
I started to get excited about the bathroom when the tiler began his work, because you can see the end result coming along. Then two days ago, it all fell apart. For some reason only one tiler arrived and he obviously wanted to get the job done quickly. So he just slapped the last tiles on any old how! It was a stressful evening when my husband came home...
After giving the guy in charge a really hard time, he's got them redoing the job - with no extra costs (except all the extra tiles!!) And it should be completed by the weekend. Then the plumber can return and fit the toilet etc.
It's been very stressful!
It's such a messy job and they're working in our bedroom! I feel as though my space has been invaded. I've got nowhere to hide away!
And as if that's not enough, my eldest decided to repaint her room...
Ok, I applaude her initiative (she's done it alone), and she's stuck to the job and I know she'll finish it.
But I'm sure there could have been a better time...
She decided to do her cupboards as well, so EVERYTHING is packed out! And it's all over my house!
Forgive my griping, but having my home upside down for three weeks has been rather tough! I don't even feel like taking any photos right now. I'll put some up as soon as it's all done, and I'm feeling better.
Oh, Felicity ~ Just know that I feel your pain! =) Hope the re-work goes quickly but WELL ♥ Looking fwd to seeing pics ~
ReplyDeleteDear Felicity, Soooo sorry to read all that. I just can't imagine all that craziness - and in your bedroom! Wow ~ I hope when it's ALL done and done RIGHT you'll be able to say, "It was a bit rough but WORTH IT!!!" Blessings, EMichelle
