Ha, ha....
In all seriousness, I am impressed by the speed and progress.
I should expect it though, as I am a Sparkie who likes to do all the jobs but even though i am really handy, i am no Chippie and when I do a job that takes me all day, my Chippie mate would do it in 3 hours.

Thanks mate, dads been in the game for over 35 years so the people we use know the quality he demands with time always a factor, sometimes we can get certain jobs fast tracked but this job would normally have a 7 day turn around time anyway even when we are flat out. Also having the right tools and equipment at your disposal makes it alot easier lol
