  • Also surely the payment terms are greater than a week anyway?

    Thanks . Yeah, I'd have thought. I was expecting the scaffolding to be gone before I was chased so I could ignore it till then!

    Just that he's sent texts with all invoice details and so on, so I'm going to have to reply (and don't want to ignore it as I'm happy with the work so don't want to do anything that would imply otherwise).

  • Yeah I can understand how you feel. But it's just business, so invoice in writing (or at least emailed PDF) is necessary and you can just drop the guy a text saying thanks for the invoice and I'll see that it gets paid, or similar, and then pay within the stated time period.

    I think it's not unheard of for scaffolding to be left in-situ until it's needed on the next job. As in, I have heard of that happening. But not sure if it's actually common.

    You've had the builder send you photos of the work to demonstrate that it's all been done, right? If not, could ask for those and they will have to go up the scaffolding to take them - you could then ask when it's being taken away face-to-face.
