    Is he blind? That can be the only explanation, it's a blind carpet fitter.

    Well after 2 hours of the ship boss trying to get out off it he is supplying a whole house of carpet for free and paying me to re fit it, he didn't want to as he didnt know my standard of fitting and wanted a demo so I had to re do two winders for him to see with what was on them already
    In his words the worst most challenging one

    I think everyone is overreacting !
    I can`t see anything there that can`t be sorted with a little spray adhesive, stretching, tucking, refitting gripper, underlay, bolstering, re-seaming, re placing doorbars.........
    Hmm, maybe eaiser to replace the f.. lot
