Default Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?

Its a perimeter locking UPVC door. Some pins were broken in the top and bottom hooks plus the gearbox casing by the door handle was cracked. (Turns out the missus was forcing the outside handle home instead of telling me it was stiff). He replaced the perimeter lock 'bar' mechanism and the gearbox. At least an hour's labour. The guy told me what was wrong, showed me the issues and told me how much before he went ahead. £200 seemed fair to me so I OK'd the work.

I'm only moaning that its an unexpected expense and its been a 7-week pay month....
