Trade time

[stephbg]

It's time to seriously consider restrapping my ceilings, for the bulges and cracks are starting to get on my nerves.

I am also eyeing off my kitchen with increasing displeasure. What sane person would choose office-grey laminate, white tiles and fluro lighting in their home kitchen? And grey verticals? Not to mention the polar-cap-threatening leaky oven.

Can anyone recommend (or otherwise) any kitchen or ceiling tradies in Perth? ta

my family know a tradie named Neil, who is a kind of "fixer". he runs a business which demolishes things for Carlton/United brewery (amongst others) - and part of the payoff is that he gets to keep what he kills. anyhow, Neil is fairly well connected in the building/tradie circles, and is well disposed to my family and friends.

anyhow, lemme know if you wants me to put you in touch with my family, who can put you on to Neil. Otherwise, you can just ring my family (at the bowling alley) directly (on WA number: nine three nine nine four four zero zero) and tell them the story if you like :)

I'll call the family and give them the heads up, that you'll call them about Neil.

I've a lot of planning to do yet, so it won't be until January at the earliest.

I've just spoke with my sister, she is all clued up and in the know.

Keep a close eye on them between now and when you get them sorted - any visible change and you could be up for a collapse within a couple of days; just ask prk or amarillion..

This weekend I'll try and remember to ask my brother in law who did his place; they had to prop up a bedroom ceiling with something for a few days, but it all ended well.

seconded about being careful. In rented house when eldest was still very small, the ceiling in the bedroom was dodgy, and I believe we had mentioned it to the real estate agent, but not with enough time that they did anything about it before it came down on the cot (fortunately unoccupied). No idea about who dealt with it.

As for the kitchen, depending on how much you want done, happy to recommend the mob who did mine - but I think that they only do major changes. On the plus side, they book all the tradespeople, and they *turn up on time*. (Kitchen and Bathroom Exclusive are the mob. They have a show room in Canning Vale, and one somewhere NOR, possibly Osbourne Park)
