The customer has removed the carpet and all furniture. The television could not be moved so it was sheeted up to protect it. The curtains have been protected with plastic. This is a relatively new house and created less mess than an old Victorian house which has had generations of coal fires.		This is a typical knockout. the fitter has removed in-fill brickwork exposing the "Builders Opening" - the typical starting point for an inglenook type fireplace. Some of the plasterwork over the opening was loose and had to be removed - not at all unusual. This is now ready for re-plastering.		See how much rubble is created by knocking out a small inglenook. Many houses have much larger builders openings and consequently much more rubble to dispose of.
