Or.sn empty cement bag .I believe this is what the guys use working at the top of those big crains

Can't help wondering what they were doing with cement up there.

Maybe that's why this guy has been here all day today - waiting for a bag of cement....

Or climbed up in the hope of stealing one.

Maybe construction companies have taken to hiding building supplies in tower cranes. It's not the sort of place people would look when deciding to help themselves to bricks for their new barbeque.

It seems by the odd reply on here that some people are happy to pee in a grid or dump into a bucket. Can I put it this way, building work isn't cheap for the homeowner, you regularly read posts about customers complaining that a price was £50k or more than they thought, builders don't do stuff on the cheap, they certainly aren't doing the job for buttons. Asking for a toilet isn't a challenging thing to do for them either, they just pick up the phone and one is dropped off a couple of hours later, it takes 5 minutes of their time, they could even delegate if they feel more important. toilets are £28 a week, they could even leave the old one in or get the plumber to put a temporary one in, not too dificult to arrange either.

So at the end of the day, they expect me to ---- in a bucket so they can save £28 a week on a £100k job. Would you really do that for them?

I know it's an old thread, but the latest CDM&Welfare regulations apply to homeowners as well, where welfare facilities legally must be provided.

Wee in a bucket? Now you’re just taking the ----…

Interesting, do you have any links to that legislation?

That states obligations for contractors and commercial clients.
