    Total price 5k over, so more than 40% over,yes he said it needed a lot more plumbing than thought,everything through builder but dealt with each directly,weather wasn’t an issue,no issues with scaffolding,everything was supplied as requested, I’ll know to get a fixed quote in future

    Yeah only mechanical fixings, it was 50mm insulated slabs , I think it was 12 to 15 fixings per slab

    I just thought was a bit steep for 2 lads plastering and 1 lad mixing, builder had everything ready for them. It was approximately 7 to 8 days in total so a nice bill.

    No was done by a pro, the builder who got him to do it insured me it was double skimmed, I’m not convinced that’s why I’ve come here for sound advice
