Freestanding Sign Installation snag, advice please?
Long story cut short.
Had a sign made, and had to use different installers to usual to install the sign, client wasnt happy and the sign was removed.
Had extentions made for the posts, return to site to refit, only to find the original installers removed and disposed of the posts.
I suspect they couln’t dig the holes to the required depth, and cut them down, a little too much, hence the clients complaint.
It was agreed to get new legs manufactured with a base drilled plate for fixing into a concrete foundation.
We supplied the client the dimensions for the foundation to be dug, and the size of the concrete base.
Fitters arrived on site today and decided not install the sign as they’re concerned the concrete isn’t anywhere near the specified depth, and had a soft surface.
Client is adament it is the correct depth, and has done ‘test drills’, and their groundworks guys assured him it will be ok.
So how best to proceed?
I think tomorrow we will conduct our own test drills with fixings, and if we’re not satified hand the sign over and get them to install if they’re sure its OK.
Any advice greatly appreciated, and I’ve learnt a few lessons these past few weeks!
