I've lost work because of being "too dear" but feck that, 'tis cheaper to leave the van sitting there instead of working for nothing.
The cash/barter market is rife over here at the moment.
When are they ever going to learn that cheap tenders and cheap quotes bring trouble - for everyone!?
Very true, one part of the problem in both Ireland and the UK are big operators (mainly accountants and chancers) taking on contracts because they know they can manipulate the amounts they pay to the tradesmen who actually do the work.
Mutha I take it you don't like the rates offered by the Bord Gais (Irish version of B.G.) contractors?
I do not but even after explaining the reason why I'm double the price is that my service takes twice/thrice as long, it still don't gel.
Especially when the customer is strapped for money.
Why are you charging new clients 50% less than existing, or am I missing something?ÂŁ40 for first hour for existing customers, diagnose and give a cost for repair without disclosing what the repair is, new customers are ÂŁ20 more for first hour, get paid the fee at first visit, that way if they trawl the internet for prices and decide not to have the repair, you got paid for the hour you were there.

Sorry, I missed the word "more"!
