Thank you... good advice, it’s probably my builder in disguise!! ;-)

Yes please that would be amazing thank you

I know we had to pay £4,000 for a private plasterer to come in and redo all the inside walls!! The entire build has been hell...fighting at every turn but he just shouted us down (as we lived on site in a caravan) said that we were constantly interfering everyday... we weren’t, we were just...

Ok thanks :)
