Looks like they were installed fine and just hot glued in to keep them from rattling
Shit comes pre made to just snap together

>>1260908
That butters my biscuit.

do they know that squares exist?

>>1260924
qué?

I guess I'd cut it back under the banisters and use a dark caulking. That's a really shitty job done.

>>1260903
This is what happens when you hire unionized morons.

Do yourself a favor and give your local Juan a few bucks to do a better job.

>>1260979
>local Juan
A Mexican will do any job but a good job.

>>1260903
Redneck on meth tier work goin on there. MAGA!

>>1260985
I tend to agree but only because most works suck no race has an innate work ethic.

Some people believe unions are bad, they enjoy lower pay and worse benefits and poor job security.
Give your employer all the power, theyll treat you right!

Okay if you guys want to see bad, go look at pictures of any sort of infrastructure in Antigua. Since the British pulled out they've elected solely based around how good a candidate says they'll make the roads and 9/10 they do a worse job fixing roads than previous prime minister. They can't drive over 40mph ANYWHERE on the island because there are so many holes in the road (with depths from 3inches-1½ feet and 2-4 feet wide) that the risk of death from being flipped over goes up the faster you drive. They install makeshift speed bumps on every major road making a drive around the country (which should only take 45 minutes if they had actual roads) over 2 hours. This disaster would be better off if they decided to just steam roll some dirt every once in a while and drive on that. I saw piles of rocks from old buildings in the middle of the road causing everyone to drive up onto the sidewalk if they wanted to pass through and it wasn't a one way road either. We had to wait and communicate with other drivers to determine who goes first and who goes next everytime we wanted to get to our house. Africa-tier country

I had my whole sprinkler system done by a beaner. Best damn plumber I ever dealt with. Would rather have a beaner do the work than a lard ass.
>>1261546
Probably right

pic unrelated

>>1261958
I looked at that for a long time

>>1261960
I should've hired a beaner for my driveway, last guy that did my driveway fucked up my entire sprinkler system

>>1262057
This is the nature of driveway work.
>Do sprinkler sytem
>Can't be bothered to rent a real trenchless bore, use waterjet or sledgehammer and pipe to get underneath driveway. Ride right underneath driveway because it's easier to not dig that deep.
>Replace driveway
>Hit all the pipes hiding right underneath it.

You gotta trench when the driveway is out, or hire someone that will use a real mole to punch 2' below the bottom of your driveway.

>>1261425
Why! How?

>>1261958
A lot of great thought has been put into doing that, the fact there's no earthing really shows how much they care

Suicide is painless... except in Brazil where its a violent ride the lightning affair in the shower

Is Antigua the only Caribbean country you have been to?

Many people around the region including a lot of my friends go to Antigua because it is a "step up" from where they are

Also it is no where near as bad as you make it out to be. You sound like some sort of soccer mom that is recalling an event at a restaurant where the food took 11 mins instead of the promised 10 mins

>>1260946

>>1260903
this is what happens when you hire a bunch of Julios.

>>1261503
>threaten them with ice
man, that's cold

>>1262074
its a super comfy heater that gives you unlimited hot water.

>Suicide
those things are harmless, the most youll feel is a slight buzz if its wired wrong.

>>1260918
Are you dense? Look at the last photo, not even lined up. I bet you're good at diy

>>1264317
I see what you did there.

It literally warns you not to use in areas with high conductivity water. Like how the fuck do I know how conductive my water is?

>>1266514
Use a TDS meter. It estimates the hardness of water by testing its electrical conductivity. Hardness describes the amount of dissolved minerals in the water.

In general the more dissolved minerals, the greater the conductivity.

The other way to test is just to look in your kettle and see if it has a lot of limescale building up in it. If it doesn't, or you don't know what that is, then chances are you have soft (not very conductive) water.

Very hard water will require different soaps and laundry detergents for effective cleaning.

This looks like a nice house for roaches.

I don't see the point of this thread. Either:
A) YOU did a really shitty job
B) You posted pics of someone else's work on /di(Y!)/
Either way, you're an idiot.
