cos you aint got much time to prepare your quote and explain to customer all on survey
Explain what? If I give a price, this is the price, you agreeing to it, means you understand it. I clearly put at the bottom of every email "if you have any questions please fell free to get in contact" I am not psychic, I can not read minds. I give price, customer asks questions, they either agree or disagree, I don't force them, I don't hold there hand, I don't cuddle them, I don't force them to do it, they choose to go ahead with it. They don't want to then don't go ahead. You agree price then pay, simple
 
I only supply and fit central heating mate , wb guarantee is 5 ,7, 8 for me
i dont do bathrooms
And you moan that your not busy!!
beggers really are choosers.
what happens if there is a power shower in system? You just cap it and leave it?

We when were smaller had a pro former quote, filled it in on day . Two copies one for us - signed and accepted by custard and one signed by us accepted by custard.

Now it's all done electronically. Google cal for appointment, survey details stored on notes bit any photos on g drive.

Tart sends out formal quote.... Which is cut and pasted in to g notes on job . Oh it's so streamline..... Till you see stock rooms or the waste store . Last week we had a mountain of boxes probs 200 duotec and ecotec boxes mixed in with a few logics and all the installation debris...... No metal not even a screw tho? Strange ???
