As it’s Friday afternoon we thought we’d share a light-hearted
look at some of the more humorous enquiries we’ve encountered over the years.
Recently we had a flurry of e-mails from suppliers offering
discounts on ‘basment conversion’ products. It reminded us of an enquiry we
received from someone who had mis-read one of our vans and thought we offered
‘damp ROOFING’.
A little further digging and we managed to find a few more
amusing slip-ups, so here are our top 5:
1. Typos: basment conversions, damproofing and membrain are
the most common!
2. “I have a severe problem with damp in my horse.” (Perhaps
a vet…?)
3. “I need someone to install a Jacuzzi spa bath, double
sink, double shower and WC, tile walls and floor (marble) and all electrics.
The room is 15ftx19ft approx. I am a pensioner and on a tight budget so would like someone
to do the work for £100 or less. (Yes, this was for real. Wish my ‘tight
budget’ allowed for huge marble luxury bathrooms, don’t you?)
4. “My husband fell through the loft and wrecked his Artex.”
(Ouch, sounds painful!)
5. “Ah, it says Damp Roofing on your van, can you come and
look at our roof please?” (Not sure why you’d want a DAMP roof – aren’t they
all damp in Wales and Shropshire anyway?)
Hope you have a great weekend, and remember if you need
assistance with damproofing (or even damp proofing) or your ‘basment’ needs
waterproofing, find us online at http://www.coniferbasements.co.uk/
or call 01650 531 694. (Probably best not call us with any wet horses though,
can’t really help with that.)
