Mr Dillon came this morning to do the repointing and retiling of the roof.
I gave him a cheque as agreed for £300 and got a receipt.
While here he indicated that an area of the wall at the rear of the house - north facing - requires quite a lot of repointing. It does, actually - even I can see that. It would be a day's work and would cost around £200. I could get him to do this and so make the cement flush with the brickwork (it is noticeably not flush!!) but said I would consult with the others before proceeding.
Is this piece of work something that should be done as a matter of necessity? He said that a surveyor would pick up on it straight away.
Also a small piece of work that couldn't be done today was due to the inaccessibility of the section of the roof. They'd have had to remove the roof to the garage.
I am getting my £300 eventually, aren't I?

It has been suggested that I claim on an insurance policy for the work carried out today. I think this is shifting the goalposts somewhat and I am not having anything to do with it. The insurance is not even in my name and it may even be fraud to try this out. I will pay only £100 rent next month in order to recoup the money.
