Probably H&S prevents the use of labour of unknown ability. To borrow another thread, they can't risk Reg Prescott turning up to build the kiddies' climbing-frame.

mine twitches - will that do?
In that case, I know of one local gas engineer they are using, as I know them, and he posted a picture on Facebook of himself and Nick!
Ok. In that case I was mistaken.
I know of a couple of people who got involved in one of these a while back and they are certainly local companies.
I got the impression that the big boys are on standby to help in case the locals let them down or can't drum up enough resource.
Also, a lot of the materials are pre ordered obviously.

Get photos and blog about it. :)
It may be a mixture of that and a few local firms. Having looked again at the vehicles parked there is a flooring firm that is local and Toby has made me aware of another. But the others I don't recognise and none have local phone numbers on the sides. Some only have mobile numbers.
Well they need the work done properly or there would be all hell on. They might still be volunteers, depends on if they are being paid or not. Might be looking for free advertising. Fat chance from the Beeb.
---------------------------------- Yes I've noticed that if you look on the bbc website there is no mention of which companies were involved in any of the DIY makeover programmes. Whereas for a programme like Grand Designs on channel 4, every single supplier gets their full details published.
You must be watching a different version to me.
On the website I think he means. Grand Designs don't fuzz out van sides etc either.
Right. As regards 'fuzzing' out supplier's names etc, why should they? They aren't employing them. They are recording what has occurred. Different matter with these DIY progs.
One thing I noticed on the 'Planners' series was the lack of fuzzing out of number plates of cars parked in public roads. It came as a refreshing change after all the fuzzing out of the last year or two.
Yes, on the websites.
I'm not that sad :-)
