Asprea ring me to make sure that I have heard from Rainbow about installing the drier. I confirm that they have been in touch and that it’s all arranged. I take the opportunity to raise concerns about the allowance that has been given for replacing the wall paper in the lounge. I have been out to look at wallpaper recently and have not been able to find anything other than very poor quality/basic lining paper for £7 a roll. Straight away I am told that they will authorise the allowance to be increased to £11 +VAT a roll which should enable me to find something. I feel slightly better until I carry out an assessment of wall paper for sale on the Homebase website. They have 410 wallpapers to choose from. The average cost is £14.30 a roll – a considerable amount more than the allowance I have been given. Less than a quarter of the wallpapers on sale fall into the price range I have been given. The most common price for a roll of wall paper is £16.99. I note that had I stuck with the original price allocated of £7 a roll there are just 14 wallpapers for me to chose from, representing less than 4% of the total wall papers on sale.
