started a new job today victorian terrace with large timber panneled bay
they haven't been cleaned for about 4 months so i gave her the quote last week for windows front & back inc wash the bay down £25.00
so i turns up & gets going next doors comes out can you do mine yes of course
another £25.00 carries on working the  the other neighbour comes out can you just clean the front yes another £15.00 quid
so i have just finished the fronts of the first 2 & another 1 appears front again £15.00 mor quid this is looking good i think
so i start cleaning the tops get them done
next thing runs out of water great black runs all over the paneling looked a right state
so i had to knock on and tell them i would have to come back tomorrow
thing is they had already paid me i offered them there money back till tomorrow
but they said it was ok i felt like a right clown after a prospurose day
