I would have gone for £450.00. Builders always try it on, stick to your price or walk away

I would agree payment terms as well before, or even better get paid upfront. Not the best reputation for paying promptly builders.

I used to do builders cleans years ago, and I would get paid in 10 days,I think that is was to keep everyone happy or would you prefer to wait till the end of next month ?

P.S As said before sort out price and payment terms before you start.
