Wow! Can you identify them? I quoted this job and allowed for about $1500 in scaffolding, harnesses etc to replace the guttering.. I don't think I will win it.  Of course, who needs health and safety when you have others willing to do the job and risk everything! By the way the one in black is also standing on a ladder. No harness and probably no insurance. Gutters and downpipes should be legally classified as drainage and only to be installed by qualified trade men. After watching these guys nothing shocks me any more!

Yes indeed  makes a mockery of the recent changes to working at height regulations in which plumbers/ trades have to abide by.

Just get up there and replace that spouting boy!  Sorry boss i dont bounce as well as i used too...........

Did you ever hear what happened about this job?

Hi Plumber, I guess there has been no response as yet?
 I would have been mildly surprised if there had been any action.

Yes no surprise really, I guess if it had been me id be still in jail!
One would hope that the report a cowboy app and the current drive to sort out this sort of bad practice would make this sort of unsafe practice a thing of the past.

hi plumber can we keep all that crap from getting into the forum, cheers
