Builder has 'postponed' due to his mother passing away

Anonymous user 01/03/2024 - 2.49 PM

Our builder texted us the day before he was supposed to come and lay our new floor saying his mother had died and couldn't come. How long should we reasonably leave it before we ask him when he is coming back. We currently have no floor only bare floor boards and we've left our pets with mother in law. Thanks.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Just send him a text, if he does not reply in 24 hours I would think about moving on.

Hi there, I would txt a kindly txt. And if no reply I would contact someone to finish flooring. He'll probably be upset for some time, and would be glad for you to get someone else. That would release the guilt on his part for not doing the flooring. Many Thanks
