All same problems mate I've got five houses to render in October now

Costing me thousands a week, I'm doing a site of 42 houses and miles behind.
Projects taking longer, teams of lads on reduced output, but it is what it is, its autumn the weather is variable.

[BigBish]

It's no different in North Yorkshire,
Rendering is an 8 month a year occupation, March to October, we are now on tick over.If you still having to pull up trees this time of year and onwards your doing something wrong.

[Ftp321]

I've got no choice trying to finance a build of my own and it goes like f**k**g water

 

[owls]

absolute shite mate.
I've seen persimmon screaming at lads to get it on
scaffold needs dropping

 

[tapit]

The weather is always great its just our perception of it that changes.

 

[essexandy]

If it makes you all feel any better the water level has risen by 3 inches in my lake.
However we start a chop off and rerender on Wednesday, so I might not be so happy then.

Been thinking the same thing. You can get pop ups like the gas board and BT use but they’re £200 plus.

I've done that last couple of years stop outside work for about 4months. Changed again this year taking one outside job at a time not to big and finish it before starting a nother. Example started a chimney last Saturday remove old cap cleard scaffold scratch coat lead bells fixed slate round chimney. Only need half a day to dash once a got a dry spell I was on it did not matter if it was 2 4 hours. . The only trouble is weather forecast is going to be my favourite program for 4 5 months now. But if a big freeze comes your really fuked then

And a nother thing I keep in mind you always got Saturday Sunday if weather great and you whant catch up working two half days on a job makes hell of a difrent. Wish had this head in my twenties I'd be well off today

That looks almost identical to the one I had at my lake. It didn't last very long. They really don't like any wind.

They’re heavy and take a bit of time to set up. A pop up and pin down would be much better.
