We are currently having our house extended, started mid july with an estimate to finish mid november. The builders are still nowhere near finished, they still have a wall to knock down, a wall to erect, decking to built, a concrete path to fix, the lights to fit, loo & sink to fit, drainage to do & canopy over door to do.
The snow has held things up a bit obviously but we have now had 3 days in a row with noone turning up despite the roads being fine now. The gaffer doesn't call to say they aren't coming & I only find out after I call him so we have been sat in the house waiting for them to appear for ages. One of our new radiators isn't working & they haven't sent the plumber to fix it. I know they have 2 other extensions on the go just now that their guys are working on so we feel they are ignoring us because of these jobs. However we were the first job taken on so we are starting to get pissed off big time.
On the whole they have been good but recently we feel the communication is lacking plus they are ignoring us to work on other jobs nearer to them.
Not sure if this is all normal for builders or am I being reasonable?

AIBU?
To be really annoyed with our builder?
