People never cease to amaze me. I've been doing a big job for well to do folk for about 4 years. Every now and then they'll ask for an extra. Was there last time, and they asked for the inside of the conservatory to be done and a roof section which is only accessible from the inside and has two windows + a raised conservatory roof thing with no pvc just about 20 panes. Hadn't been in done in 12 months but wasn't that bad. Left them a bill, charged £30 extra for both which i thought was a bargain. Get a text later in the day saying they think I overpriced and my hourly rate is too high?!
I do quite a few extras for people and charge more than that on some but was really surprised because they've been great customers up til this point. It's really strange how some people think as I'm earning the same or more p/h on the windows than i do on the extras on this particular job and they've never complained at that! I love my job but some people really rub me up the wrong way at times.
Any other similar stories out there?
