Sir, - Why is it that 99 per cent of builders in this country start a project with apparent enthusiasm and good intentions, only to desert the site after a period of admirable industry, sometimes not returning at all, but more often finishing in a patchy and haphazard way, in bits and pieces, over an inordinately long time, to the inexpressible dissatisfaction of the client? - Yours, etc.,H.
Roycroft, Louis Lane, Rathmines, Dublin 6.
