I’m sorry, but I’m not sure which forum to post my dilemma on, so I hope it’s ok here.
The thing is, I have got someone lined up to do a job for me in the house, well actually it’s to install a new central heating system and boiler.
He seems like a really nice guy, ever-so posh and a really good laugh. He has promised me that he will get the job done quickly and has given me a really good quote for the job.
The thing is, I’ve asked around and found that he has never actually completed any job to anyone’s satisfaction, has told one lie after another and is a bit of a ladies’ man (although this last doesn’t bother me). He is apparently being investigated for fraud in one job he did. I even asked his sister what she thought and she said she wouldn’t trust him.
He has promised me that he will get the job done by 31st October or he'll die trying, but to be honest some of the things he is planning to do to cut corners seem a little bit left of the law to me. I am also a bit concerned that he has not actually signed the quote he has given me.
I would really value everyone’s opinion – do you think I should trust him and let him into my house?
Gonegirl. No meanness intended, as I said in my Tues post (Not OP).
