No word about my floor fitting yet

It was arranged for the flooring company to fit laminate flooring in my two bedrooms this morning. This was a deferred fitting which was originally scheduled for last Friday, but was put back at their request. I expected to receive an advance telephone call, but so far I have heard nothing. It is now after 9-30 AM, so it is rapidly becoming a concern. All the furniture is now heaped in my living room and kitchen, so I had better get some word soon. As far as I know the workmen may be in transit now, but it is not looking too promising at the moment.

I was a little premature in my suspicion because they arrived about 10 minutes after I had made this post.

@allknowing Well they are certainly making enough noise at the moment, unless that is a recording and they are sat there having a coffee.

So sorry. The company does not seem reliable. Many of our companies call and also give email updates. When I discover this about them, I do business with them in the future. Those who leave me in the dark, go on my never again list. Hope yours shows up soon and does a good job for you.

Despite my being concerned at the time they arrived shortly afterwards and the job is now complete.

Sorry to hear that. It can be really inconvenient for you. Hope the workmen will reach your house and get the flooring done very soon. Is it a one-day job?

That is always disappointing when workmen do not show up at the appointed time.

They arrived shortly after I had written this, but I did expect a telephone call first.

@Morleyhunt We have all done that at times and the word is "infuriating".

@Asylum I've waited all day for a workman to shoe. How disappointing when no one appeared.

I was away from MyLot longer than anticipated. You have been a busy beaver! I'm going to catch up! Do all workmen forget to keep us informed??

This post was a little premature because they arrived shortly afterwards. The mistake that they made was not telephoning me earlier to confirm the appointment.
