So last Monday, I got word that a lady has had some re pointing done. The builder then failed to finish the job, return to clean up the mortar mess and reattach the cabling. I just can't stand that kind of workmanship so I got in touch with her and offered to help at least with the cabling while another builder also popped round to offer help with the brickwork.
The quality of the pointing was awful so what should have been a 10 minute job pinning the Virgin Media and drop wire, it took over half an hour. Not that that matters.
I didn't charge a penny. It's just not in my nature. I like to help people, it's just what I do. Especially when they've already been let down.
I have posted a couple of videos in the comments too.
Have a great week guys!
