I was contacted by Mr & Mrs Barker of ‘Mill Pond Fish Farm, Langwith, on the recommendation of Mr Varney. Because he was going to have a ‘York Stone’ finish over the floor he was concerned about the depth of screed under the stone slab finish.

The job was pretty straight forward except the floor was going to be laid on block and beam base. Normally ‘Supreme T Beams’ are spanned from foundation brick work and then infilled with breeze blocks.

We were contacted by Gilbert’s Carpets of Sheffield to help with two lobby areas at The Source Training Centre in Sheffield. It was discovered that the original matting had been fitted over ply sheets and this had rotted over a period of time.

I was emailed by Mr and Mrs Woffinden in Barnsley to advise on how best to prepare the falls on their balcony in readiness to be insulated and sealed by their roofer.

I received a enquiry from the members of the south Pennine boat club after they had suffered flooding in their club when the river came over the bank and entered the building.

The committee of Stocksbridge Rugby Club contacted me on the recommendation of the owner of their local Builders Merchant. The guys needed the floors laying in their new changing and shower areas.

I was called in by Mr Hillbert of ‘C D Hillbert Construction’ to take a look at a concrete floor that was going to need screeding in the extension they had constructed in Rotherham for Mr & Mrs Hampshire.
