It's a tricky situation. This may be the last paycheque the builders get for a good while, especially as furlough pay for the self employed seems to be pretty slowly moving (this is a problem for many people I know). So I can see why they'd be keen to finish, especially now that the owners aren't in the way.
Sounds like a fucking nightmare though tbh. Fingers crossed for you that it doesn't last too long.

Amidst all this over the last few weeks we’ve been having the roof redone in our building made up of 3 flats.
I’d consider having a watertight home fairly essential- but the roof itself was finished on the weekend.
They’ve still been coming in this week to do the cosmetic stuff to the water-damaged interiors. Not my flat but the flat upstairs ( in which the horsey owners have all ready fucked off for the duration to their in-laws in the country ) so they are traipsing through the communal hallways multiple times a day, coughing like there’s no tomorrow, setting the fire alarm off every 2 minutes with the sanding
I’m off work and now at home doing the right thing
Am I right in thinking this is fucking ridiculous? How is this essential work ? Why not just postpone it till this is over ?
