had a screed to do today. approx 40m, 3 rooms. was pretty deep, between 100-125mm. so quite simply if working at 100mm it should be approx 4m3. so thats give or take what we had ordered plus a little extra.
anyway turned up and the readymix was already on the drive. me and my mate thought it looked like quite a hefty pile, but just thought well we order just over 4m3 so it must be.
anyway, when we looked at it were quite suprised to find that it had fibres in aswell as the customer had turned down the option.
so on we went, loaded out and laid the floors. it was daywork so had to drag it and ended up finishing up with tidying about 4.30. the customer went bonkers because there was still loads of screed left. and when i say loads, put it this way. he asked us to put it round the back and spread it over his patio. it ended up about 4 inches deep over the patio and all down the side of the house. it took 2 of us 2 1/2 hours to move it. we finished after washing the drive at nearly 8pm!!
we came to the conclusion that we must have got someone elses order,, coz it just isnt possible to be that far over. i am now completely f.ucked and in a bad mood:RpS_mad: we basically laid him a new patio after work
