the window sags where the frame is taking the weight of the roof where the lintel oak beam has snapped where an iron U-bolt thingy was taking all the weight..
I can see it clearly from my garden, you must be a bit further away! [g]

Put in a proper sized lintel or an RSJ. 8-)
I assume the builder was either inexperienced or just wanted the cash.
If you are in the midlands I know a very good structural engineer that would know how to solve it.. but he is head of building control on one of the councils so you would have to fix it if he found out.

If it has snapped, then one could take that as not being "adequately sized" ;-)

It doesn't really matter, any other potential customers reading that will probably now look elsewhere.

Do you have any idea how much business I get from being on this group Dennis? None, zero, zilch.
Do you know what my biggest problem is Dennis? Finding time to book in all the work.
Assuming he was a potential client, I don't need to work for idiots.

Could you tell me please how you arrived at the conclusions in your last sentence - as I see nothing of the kind in my post?
By the way, I see you as an abusive idiot who lacks even a vestige of common sense.

Mr George,
I'm glad that you approve of him, and the reference that you give is commendable (and I take note of your "not a lack of confidentiality in
*THIS* case", and its implication), but alas, I will not be employing him.T Williams

The Natural Philosopher,
Not if as business, you wish to be profitable! That's one of the problems with the 'Internet' many people think that clients and employers do not know how to use it - and fall into the rather simple trap of writing adverse comments thinking that they will not be seen.
