    Why didn't they salvage the original bricks on the demolished part of the house?

    Would the dye not wear off after a few years?

    This builder seems like a bit of a dose in fairness.
    Was going to say the same..A bit pushy and I definitely would not be letting him pressuring me into making a decision they might regret.

    He’s going to blow the contingency and loads more on red brick.... would they not be as well off to think of finished plaster in white as a contrast ... I’m drinking wine and pretend shopping on Boden Aldo so if they was insane don’t lol at me

    I'd give that builder his marching orders, he just wants to throw up the house as fast as possible. Fecking prick.

    The windows don't go with the old style at all, what was the point of all the hassle over the brickwork if you were going to change the look of the house by putting in black windows.

    Dermot completely oblivious to the fact he was told the decking was dropped for the sake of the budget.

    Honestly must be so frustrating to work with him

    I like the builder, he knows what he is doing and he is not waisting time.
    He was right about the brick.
    Yes, he is a bit pushy, but so far I think he's been faultless.
    Quality and speed of his work seems well up to scratch.
    And he's not taking any crap from Dermot.
