The plasterer turned up yesterday morning to start re-plastering the house. He thought that the ceiling in the front room just needed skimming but once he got up his scaffolding, he found that the ceiling would have to come down completely and a new one put up. When he touched the ceiling it was moving:sad2: Fine. But the mess is unbelievable:scared1: And the extra cost too.

Then the double glazing company who are doing our windows rang to say that where we want a big window taking out and patio doors putting in, we now need a lintel putting at further cost of £220, Wish the surveyor from the window company told us this when he came round then i would of been more prepared for the extra cost.

I wish people could just give you a price for something and stick to it, or tell you of the extra cost which may occur.

Sorry for ranting:) I feel better now.
 
extra costs are my pet hate as well !! have these people never heard of the word budget :headache:
 
What a nightmare. Hope today is calmer (and less expensive)
 
Hope you have a better day today Michelle:hug:
 

I hope it all looks fab when it is finished so that the extra money was worth it.
 
:goofy: Take nice deep breathes count to ten & hopefully the day will get better. because it sounds like it can't get any worst :goofy:
 
Shell, what a bummer. I hope there are no more hidden costs adn that everything else goes smoothly.
 
:hug: Oh Michelle, what a nightmare, I hope today is a bit better and doesn't cost you any more too
 
I hate it when builders etc make a mess and also have all these hidden extra costs.

Hope your day gets better :hug:
 
Hope it all gets sorted soon:hug:
