Finally had the lawnmowers come out last Tuesday. I was a bit excited and hopeful that I’ll actually have help.
They did a good job. The mowed all the lawn, removed some rubbish and even used a chainsaw to cut a log.
Then on Friday, the cleaners came out and were here for 6 hours. They completely rearranged my kitchen cupboards, which I didn’t want them to do and I didn’t know they would do that. I thought they would just move stuff, dust, then put everything back.
They stunk up the house with chemicals and I had to open windows.
When they left and I started looking at what they had done. They did clean the oven, but sprayed my fence with oven cleaner and corroded the paint, so now we have huge white stains.
I was furious on Saturday morning and wrote many drafts of angry letters telling them off, but I decided not to send them. I don’t like doing stuff in anger and rage, so I’m glad I waited and sent a ‘polite as I can be’ email this morning.
They wrote back quickly and said they would repair the fence. I guess that’s all I can expect. I just hope they repair the fence and don’t do more damage.

Oh what a shame! That’s always a good idea, waiting until later to write letters like that.
I’m glad they’re going to fix your fence – why did they spray oven cleaner on it at all? Were they trying to clean it? How strange!
