same works, be that scaffolding, painting and decorating, and even terrazzo cleaning.
The ANALYSIS is the only way to properly compare each contractor's costings and is very easy to follow - either cloose a page number/item number from the WADE quote and find it as listed on the ANALYSIS, or do vice-versa, find an item and page reference on the ANALYSIS and then find that page/item in WADE's quote.
As you have added these items, I think we should also add and expect your cheque in payment of the RTM invoice which you have had ample time to fairly appropriate the shared amounts from your fellow RTM colleagues. As you are aware and again can be added for confirmation, there is also the question of sub-let permission and close carpetting, not just for Flat 5, but the other Lessees who are in breach of their lease obligations.
It would also be helpful if you would supply/bring with you, written confirmation from each of your majority Lessees of their preferred intentions as recently outlined, most pertinently in your previous email and my reply, which remains unacknowledged. I have also NOT received one single reply to your RED questions. I am well aware of your insistence, and supposedly a majority, that WADE be the contractor for all works, Internal/External, a super duper clean be adopted, and finally that the Internals be done this year with the Externals next year and no additional money to be collected from Lessees via the quarterlies for the Externals until the Internals are finished late October, early November this year.
You'll never sell a flat here with that hanging over a purchaser! So let's see who exactly agrees with your preferences and contributing £12,210 or £13,320 to fund Wade's quote to cover both Internals/Externals, be that this year or next.
I have laid out below some pertinent and relevant facts for further consideration with two further attachments.
I have mentioned this before, and do so yet again.
I/we have absolutely no problem with WADE, since day one, it's simply that we don't have the money and can't afford the workings you have requested of them to quote for, again since day one. No other reason.
WADE, or indeed any of our other contractors/quotes, hire in sub-contractors for specialist works, be that scaffolding or Terrazzo floor cleaning. It's normal practice.
What is also normal practice is that the main contractor (example WADE) loads (meaning adds on an amount/percentage) to sub-contractors prices. It's normal.
As an example, I attach WADE's quote for Terrazzo Floor cleaning etc totalling £13, 802 plus VAT.
Also attached in the same pdf are the various quotes, FROM THE VERY SAME SUB CONTRACTOR, MARBLE SHINE, that we have sourced independently.
You will note that our independent quotes are IDENTICAL TO THE WORKS THAT WADE's QUOTE ITEMISES.... IDENTICAL (see the two pages dated 5th November 2012).
