I had an annual leave day last week and was at home.. I noticed builders over the fence placing posts near the fence.. for a patio extension..
Popped head over the fence and said this all council approved? He says yep.. so I asked so how are you putting posts on the fence line? 900mm mate..
He umms and arrs and said he don’t need council approval. I told him well Upto you m, can do the job once right or when council come out you can come fix it. Do the job twice?
the builder pulls the posts out and placed them inwards? I pop my head over and ask is it 900mm? He said yes.. so he pulls the measuring tape and says see.. I didn’t see anything.. so he turns it round and its 820mm…
900mm mate or you come come out again.. also need to take into account gutters .. so again he pulls it up and placed it inwards..
he ended up building it smaller than he wanted. But lucky I was home to keep him in Check.. people just can’t do the right thing unless someone holds them to account
what neighbour battles are you currently fighting? Cars parked on your side? Noise? Building works? Stinking cooking
