But grade one, which would be like Buckingham Palace or...
buildings like Henry the eighth type mansions or whatever that for significant interest, you're very restricted on what you can do to those.
You have to maintain even stupid things like floorboards, the floorboards, maybe maybe listed.
So you can't take off and throw out the floorboards.
People just build on top of them.
Kind of.
Some of it, yes.
But some of it is like they could have been the original floorboards from 200 whatever years ago.
So people don't want to get rid of them.
They just want to keep them.
So it causes major issues.
That's another thing why you could so difficult to forecast costs on projects, right?
Because if you have a load of that in, and suddenly you realize like, yeah, you found something of significant value, then you have to consider what to do next.
What do you think?
No, I 100%.
And I actually do not think the solution exists or will ever exist because when putting in for projects, sometimes the less you know, the better if you want to win it.
So you must be very familiar with the term like if you price the project, well, you're never like, you're not going to win it because it's the person that it's the race to the bottom.
Exactly.
So you could be you could be the
like most professional contractor, you could go in, you could allow for all of this risk within your price, but it's gonna put you like 20% higher than the guy that comes in from the street and is like, yeah, I'll do everything.
