Love it cnc, I can picture your story word for word.er...you really want to know...well it wasnt quite the way i planned it...he phoned as i was just going out of the door moaning at the smurfy prices that other windys wanted to charge and mentioned that his own was ill and he travelled from leigh...some forty mins away and he managed to do it in and out for £75..... so i said ...what time does he start ...he said 9,30 and i said and when does he finish ...he said 3,30 so i said i finish at four so i said if he can do it for that so can i....without seeing it....
. i always knew i would have to skip as much as poss....but near the end...i just used my cill cloth scrim scrunched up and just waved it over the leads at the front....they were not really cleaned as such but i had killed myself and i was gonna finish at four....
it really is a case of....mr taytay saves the day day...them magic clothes are really magic...i just gave a quick wipe and the detailing was done...can't thank you enough for that ...ta. again..
the house was owned by our haggling friends...and feeling sorry for someone running about in a top class merc and then a lamborghini....i wasn't... at four ...i finished and sat in my car on the drive in the believe he had gone for the money....grandad was cutting the grass on his lawnmower....and staring a lot at me...
.he eventually sauntered over ....and we get....have you done all the insides...yes.,,,.er not really....then did you do the swimming pool....oh yes there was a lot of splash marks on them....and did you reach the very top ones...oh yes of course ...as he stares at them....i said ...i have got a long pole... eventually he lost interest and went back to mowing..
.he had already collard me trying to put my ladders on with have you done those above the garage.......i said no...and went off to do them......that didn't take me long..they were covered with lead oil drip from above and i buggered if i am shifting that... any way he finally arrived back
..i was getting worried..she was due back anytime and said don't do the upstairs insides til i get back and i will show you what to do....naff off....i had done enough bloody glass for that tiny amount ... if i was given the chance i would have said at best £75 out and £75 in ...the insides were nice plain glass but...there was a massive glass balcony in a square...and all down the stairs...and i had to take my ladders in to do that... so quotes of £200 were right and my £150 wouldnt be a good price...unless you wfp but as a lot say...i don't like that...i bet he dont like my crumpled scrim of the fronts either in the full sun tomorrow morning but i got my money and i now ill,well if its a good enough excuse for his old windy ... i just hope he doesnt ring again...nighty night tuffers...
C'mon cnc post any old b0ll0cks, we're behind you mate /emoticons/biggrin.png31 to go but dont tell anyone....gav thinks we dont know....or is that 30 if i post this....should be elite by monday..hurray..:rofl:
Just say it was too cheap and re-negotiate. I had one come out last week and he said 'do you still do the gutter vac and gutter clean?' Yes I say, but I massively underpriced the job last time I did it. I added 50% to the price and he agreed. Bump it up cnc if you want it, if you don't just say you haven't got time. I've got a woman mithering me to do her insides all the time (big farm type building with lead and Georgians), I keep saying I'll ring her when it's raining. I don't intend doing the job even if it's raining :rofl:youre makin me chuckle cheap n cheerful. i guess weve all been there . youre already thinkin of an excuse for when he rings you up- well practice your speech several times at home so youre confident or you will end up fluffing it and saying "OK "When i was on my own i used to use the "van engine blown, at 70 mph " excuse , dont use the " van wont start " cos that only gives you a few hours grace !
"backs gone" is another thats no good ,cos they might see you around
