Got no chance! I've been asleep since...
Unf my focus has been:
- designing our show stand
- sourcing parts for said design
- packing kits for the show
- designing brochures
- sourcing said brochures
and lastly helping explain ins and outs of bloody water flowing down placcy pipes when it's a bit nippy

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Busy bee then.

Well, would I be able to repair so these taps with your kits cheaper than the cartridges here.

I'd say so yes. You'll be paying approx half their cost.

You are kidding me right!

 

[mutley racers]

Not really. I have seen it before but have forgot where. Don't really want to search on net again

 

[Harvest Fields]

You are kidding me right!

Clearly not mate. Tell us more about this awesome and wonderful product. What’s it called? Is there a website? What can you do?

 

[Welder]

It's not for you then Mutley. I'm afraid it won't do the job for you.
Best stick with the website you found as it'll be simpler for you.

Yet more people enjoying the physical making, sense of pride and satisfaction of demonstrating professionalism in their choice of solution.

Coming to a trade show near you at the end of the month, see before you buy mate @ show price.

If Lee isn't sure, he'd be best off with a 6PAQ. When he gets more adept then he can upgrade to the shiny, Shauny, Pro version

That was going to be my next question. Thanks

It is this month at Ally Pally isn`t it Dave?

 

[mutley racers]

So to make some cash on these I would have to charge £20 a cartridge. This sound about right

dont you mean the very empty shaun version

 

[ShaunCorbs]

charge same price you posted

 

[rpm]

But you are going to charge more aren`t you? Much more in some cases.

 

[Welder]

You can charge what they are worth. If the one you are replacing is priced at £35 why would you only charge £20? Sell it at £30.

If the job is repairing some tiled in taps where otherwise it would cost £1000 to remove & replace a bath then charge £200 because that's its true value vs the alternative. Doing those, then allows you to do a few at cost price for little old ladies

Christmas is over Shaun, time to give the lonely spindles some new company

Plus the extra you'll make on labour. Min charge £50, in and out.

 

[Harvest Fields]

I’m a sucker for OAPs. They kill me sometimes

One of the HS engineers went to a job to repair two taps on a Belfast sink. Normally it's 1-1.5 hrs. He logged in upon arrival and was logged out having replaced TWO cartridges in just over 11 minutes!!!
So, on the basis of £50 for 15 minutes that's nearly as much as I need to entertain my 14 yr old
