I had a job booked today, was going to be the last job of the day, a quick 3 panel glass roof, £60 in and out. It was arranged that I'd be there today between 2-4pm. Although it was only a 10 minute drive from the previous job, it is one of the furthest areas I cover, probably 10 miles out.
So I turned up at 3pm and no one is home, call all the numbers and send an email. I wait 5 mins then leave an invoice as a calling card and charged them £20 for the call out.
What would you have done? Charged a call out fee? Charged full amount? or nothing gone home and clean the dog much off ya boots from a previous incident in a disgusting garden?
First time I've ever felt the need to do this so would be good to get others perspective.
