Day 4 - renovations June-July 2008

OMG well what a fucking disaster - sorry but I'm really stressing atm ..

OK first things first - YES they started on the floor yesterday and I kept saying to the guy - it's not level .. they are chinese and very VERY hard to understand and he kept saying "yes, floor level" .. so anyway they get most of the floor done in the lounge room and we're thinking "wow" ..

after they had finished for the day .. we grabbed the new skirting board and put it up against the wall with the new floor and WOW WOW WOW !!! .. but hang on a minute why is there a huge gap between the skirting board and the new timber floor ??????????????

So we looked at the skirting board - hmm ok maybe it's not level so we grabbed a strip of timber flooring .. nup the same problem .. by this time I was really stressing !

I rang the guy and told him we weren't happy and he said he would come this morning - which he did .. and OMG did they have a fight in chinese - Peter, Phyliss and I were in the bedroom wetting ourselves laughing it sounded so damn funny .. of course we had no idea what they gibbering about ..

So as it turns out the WHOLE FUCKING FLOOR has to come up ! .. they are coming back this afternoon between 3 - 4pm with a levelling machine to check the floor ..

I've got a raging headache and tired of having a pig sty of a house ...........................
