Today I have been out fitting some pieces I made at a terraced cottage. One of the units is the tall corner cabinet I posted on here recently and as usual I was expecting problems with non square corners and had taken some trim strips to account for this. So I was astounded when it fitted perfectly into the corner which was completely square from top to bottom! 
Talking to the lady customer about this she informed me that she had done all of the walls, plastering, plumbing, and tiling! In fact she was a very capable trades person. I also had a boiler cabinet to fit in the kitchen and this was also the same with everything fitting in exactly! I have to say that the quality of this woman's work was better than I had seen from so called experts! I am sure my jaw dropped when she also told me she had tiled the roof, replaced some of the trusses and fitted new guttering! All in all she was a very knowledgeable woman. i got the boiler cabinet fitted, the corner cabinet in the bathroom and a door and frame on the landing today but will be returning in the morning to fit a small loft hatch and three small shaker doors to a cupboard. I will then take some photos of the work. I am however pleased to say she drew the line at fine woodwork as she said this was just beyond her, lucky for me or I wouldn't have got the work. :lol: My mate who was helping with the lifting said that's just the sort of woman he could do with. :lol:
