I went to a common job this morning, A lady was complaining of water hammer every time she ran the hot water, this is usually the ball valve in the cold tank feeding the cylinder and its usually a 15 minute job,
When i got there I found there's no loft ladder and no light in the attic, OK that's no problem I have a pair of steps and leadlight so off back to the van, when I opened the attic hatch the fucking " we'll fill your loft with fibreglass for free' brigade had been there, What a twat, you can't see the roof supports and the tank is right over the other side, So i have to disturb all the fibreglass to find the supports to stand on or I'll end up in the bedroom, Its like itchykoo park, It gets in your throat,up your nose and in your clothes,
I finally get to the tank and its a old galvernized one and wrapped in fibreglass as well, I'm wishing at this point i'd not come, the ballvalve is near the wall and its made in with red stagg and lead washers, I can only get a quarter turn on the nut, It took my an hour and half just to get the old one off, I was frightened of knocking the tank because its corroded to fuck and the slightest bang could finish its life here and now,
Anyway I finally got the job done in 3 hours and warned the lady of the very bad condition the tank is in, She was't listning, she's thinking I'm trying to get more work but i don't want that job, NO WAY,
anyrode that'll teach me going out on a Sunday hoping for a quick £50 and getting butt fucked,,I charched her £70 and you should have seen the displeasure in her face,
