They may be needing gutter cleaners.
One of their staff was sent up on the roof to clean gutters, he fell through a skylight. Another member of their staff was sent up to take photographs of the scene and what happened, he fell through a different skylight !!! A roofing contractor company was sent in to sort out the skylights and one of their staff fell through too, he's crippled and in a wheelchair now.
Bizspace got a 5k fine and the roofing contactor got a discharge (because he's bankrupt).

Meanwhile a plumber operating whilst not on the Gas Safe Regster (no sign of him being incompetent) gets six months in the nick !!
