Cheers. 5 weeks. Everything moved, single storey extension on back making it nigh on impossible to get at what used to be the external pipes and things arriving not as what the customer told me originally.
Start a nice 4 day bathroom tomorrow. Bath out, free standing one in and replace the pine cladding behind it. New toilet, new basin and a little 760 square shower cubby hole that's getting wet walled.

I’m sure I can count the number of bathrooms that I have run to schedule on one hand.
