Permits vary from council to council
Recent cutbacks have now made getting a permit on bog standard terrace houses in Lancashire ring a call center
No problem with that if it save on my council tax bill
But when an emergency job comes in i.e. roofer only books it the night before
the phone operator cant authorize it and money being the all important factor the job needs to go ahead
how do you cope
then to cap it off a great big lamppost is all but glued to the property and they have to get an engineer to come out and switch off the power at a stupid cost then re power it at another stupid cost
my question is if the lampposts are so dangerous how come babies in prams going past them or cyclist who secure their bikes with chains arnt frazzled and even the little vandals who like to think their muscles can bend anything (except the one call the brain 0) are safe when a scaffolder is in such danger
