gloss painting needed


Recommended Posts

Hi


I need help with a load of gloss painting ASAP. Not worried about qualifications, just skill (like my dad!).


Anyone who would like some work and is decent at glossing give me a shout. Suit retired or unemployed with good DIY skills.


Needs a good finish so please don't bother unless you are good at it! Doors, door frames and stairs to be done.

Hi Sue,


I'm retired, have worked as a professional decorator for some time in the past and have worked on my own house to a very high standard for many years.

Sorry, but I can't stand using gloss, or any other petro-chemical paint and why do you think that people are going to come along and work for nothing for you - these are desperate times? Are you seriously disabled, aged, on benefits or in a very desperate financial situation? Anyway, sounds like you live in a bit house - thinking of letting it out when it's all done up?


Cheers, no offense meant.

Are you psychic ? Where does the poster say she wants it done for free? Or lives in a mansion?

My plea to the poster is not to give cash in hand work to those on benefits. You know they won't declare it, meaning they are effectively stealing from the tax payer; and you are giving them a helping hand. Would you be a lookout for a thief breaking into a house?

And yet highly offensive, i*rate - especially the questions regarding the poster's financial position and the 'letting out' insinuation. And I don't see anywhere in Sue's post that she wouldn't be paying for the job! In fact, quite the contrary - as she says it's for 'anyone who would like some work...' That usually means paid work.

Crustyrack and buddug,


My sincerest apologies to Sue_Fidler if my remarks were offensive in any way. I did get hold of the wrong end of the stick maybe, but did'nt see any mention of money or rates.

I do hope someone needy and willing to work hard takes the job on - cash-in-hand, whatever.


Cheers.

    • I am at The Gardens. I saw GP on a Wednesday and he recommended physio, he checked availability and offered Tessa Jowell Centre for Saturday at 1 pm or Forest Hill Road Practice on a Monday at 11 am. I chose FH- very efficient/ Physio at FH very helpful, sent me some neck exercises and referred me for spinal assessment at Kings.
    • Of course, people's experiences may vary, but I'm afraid I can't recommend the DMC on Crystal Palace Rd.
    • Option 1.  Let them go bust.  Government takes over, until an appropriate solution found.  This happens with failing train operating companies  Option 2.  Anyone who made money on the privatisation, or their immediate descendants, bail them out  Obviously the latter isn't going to happen but makes me feel better/superior. What do you reckon?  Big picture.  Small picture as I posted elsewhere is that they were good when we had a leaking main.  And of course mass redundancies need to be avoided.
