Hi all,

Sorry for the delay. Just back from Melbourne.

I have checked the roof and it seems to be draining well after the big storm overnight, so thats good news.

After new inspection the foam will be needed as they need to match both sides and the height issues are obvious.

However, they quoted for the job and should have known that the insulation was there in the first place so they should absorb that cost.

Additionally they knew this 3 months ago when they pulled up the tiles and didn’t bring it up then so not impressed.

It is crazy that no work at all is being done still with no start or end in sight.

I hope they are not being paid in advance as they seen to not care about completing this job.

In short lets get this done and finished.

Regards,

Ken and Cathy

I think best to leave to we are finished and then get a quote to put some rubber seals on the doors and a lock so it can not be opened. There is nothing in that area that BBQ users need to access.  I know some would like the BBQ removed. But as that is not in the EC's power lets leave that debate for the appropriate time.
