          I think not.
          One does not 'employ' a builder to do work in ones house. One engages a builder to carry out a specific piece of work.

          And if said builder wants to bang around over the Christmas holidays, there's nothing you can do to stop him, apparently. Expect a lawsuit in the post......

              Does that not describe any normal working day for a builder ?

                He must have been trolling. Asks our opinion and ends by telling us his lawyer agrees with him.

                It was a good chuckle while it lasted.

                  Not a troll.

                  It seems that it's someone who runs a ltd co providing resource. The resources are employees of mcltd's company. mcltd isn't doing the work himself. It looks like these employees are provided on a standard contractor contract. Not sure IR35 applies at all. The situation seems to me more like when pwc or such ilk provide a consultant for a project.

                  At least that's what I glean from the drip drip of information in the original thread.
                  Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

                    In which case, what kind of cretin fails to confirm Christmas period working arrangements? Did he just assume that his resources would be wanted on site on Christmas Eve from 9 am to 530 pm?

                      Is your wife going to be at home? If so, then the builder can come round banging every day, you don't need to worry, everyone is happy, and you pay him on your return.
