Happened to me 2 weeks ago. Not just a gaping hole but loose brickwork around it. Instead of having him up and running didnt even get the boiler on the wall until the next day after having to build it up. How the boiler that I removed stayed on the wall I will never know.
96 year old customer
photo doesn't do it justice. The blocks were placed in the hole, and majority of the brick work above them were loose.

Had a bloke yesterday. Asked for llgs/service. Sent an engineer there and he has removed a gas fire himself. Can't turn on gas as he has an open end. I spoke to him on the phone and told him he shouldn't be touching it and if he knew it needed doing y didn't he say instead of knowing full we'll it wasn't just a service. Said I would send the engineer to pick up a cap and replace for £20 virtually cost price because I didn't want to loose the £78 on the service. Said it was expensive and he will pick up now and do himself!
Then I got another call, bloke has moved his own gas meter to and it's hanging mid air. He just of removed to install the new kitchen unit. Then he finds the boiler is not piped up on the hot and cold! Then a final call to say there is no gas. After all this I tell him he's gunna get charged for the callout to which the bloke says he's not paying because we havnt done the llgs/service. 1.5 hours of wages and overheads it's cost me.
I phoned southern gas and said the customer has carried out illegal gas work and we weren't able to test if it was safe as no gas into property.
Had a similar p*** taker last week asked for a service when boiler was locked out. When we had quoted for £250 worth of parts they tried topping up after we left and left filling loop open on Glowworm boiler, blamed engineer for leak saying he left it like that denied touching it. Refused to pay for 2nd visit. Hate people like this. Absolute skanks

Not getting offered a tea or coffee, despite the amount of hints you drop - " you got enough water in the kettle for tea before I turn the water off" ......................
Or not getting offered as the custard makes one for him/her self.......
Ok then the bill just went up £10
the tea would of been the cheaper option.
