    Well what have you been asked to do in the way of DIY while fitting floorings?


    I will start-

    1- hang pictures!
    2- Fit a t.v ariel (the outside bit)
    3- GRRRR..... Fit a curtain rail, while doing this someone stole the stereo out of my van!
    4- offered some bed action in exchange for free underlay :fart declined this offer!

    there are loads of random stuff, what about you lot?

    I've had the curtain rail thing, had to try and stop a door from swinging shut all of its own accord. Cant think of any more although I'm sure there have been others

    i had a job once where i went out to quote and said i would be putting plywood down.

    The customer miss understood and presumed i was installing plywood instead of the floorboards. They uplifited all the floorboards ready for me :shock:

    I got to the job to find bare joists ready for me to lay 6mm plywood!

    I always carry a box of 2" 8's on the van just in case the plumber or electrician forgets!!

    Sometimes 200 screws just ain't enough though! To$$*r$
