Flood Flood Glorious Flood
Nothing glorious going on round here folks, such a slow process, dryers still doing their thing in April, such a racket, it’s like a sauna in home (no fluffy white dressing gown and slippers though) the usage and the £ signs go up and up, we have to pay the leccy bill and then claim, ‘at some stage’ says our loss adjuster!!!!
Let’s take a stroll in those shoes again, but remember this time ‘not’ to touch those irreplaceable family photos in those beautiful frames, those favourite shoes and that expensive iPhone which lay by your chair!
Why because after a flood they and the chair you were sitting in last night are lost, lost and destined for the waste skip marked BER (beyond economical repair) they’re now covered in a brown grime (very likely contaminated with sewage, do you really want to risk touching) had enough don’t blame you, let us carry on with the tour!
Looking round home we now have walls taken back to their original brick work (never seen before) wallpaper hanging off here and there, wooden door trims ripped off, kitchen units out and under plastic sheeting for refitting (they’ll never survive the chaos) a toilet randomly sitting in the bedroom, with the large kitchen work top laying in another room, the kitchen sink is buried in there under some plastic sheeting somewhere to, confused, we are ‘most of the time’, has anybody affected worked out which way is up yet, let us know?
There’s no logic to what’s been done work wise at ours, and yes they are behind with their rip-out schedule!!
We cannot wait to smile and wave them off, (through gritted teeth) those who we inherited when making that insurance call, what then, putting our home back together if we can, or trusting it to another unknown team from wherever, another story for another time!
