Normally i would not let the cat from the bag , i got stiffed before on here for doing it , wont say who P @ F 2 (my own brother)
It wasnt enough he stole my company name ,but then he stole my work !
And now he is going to numptyise it by changing from Panes and frames to Frames and panes .
Anyway the fat git took a tumble yeserday so im happy now , he came and showed me his newly shredded knee , not pretty , but then he is ginger too , so im laughin all the way to the bank , i did ask him if he wated a cuddle but he declined ;D
Anyway , upshot of the tale is , i quoted 300 , she snapped my arm off , and then when i was given the CHQ it was generously boosted by an extra 100 , now it is a yearly clean plus i also get the other 2 buildings on site plus the vicarage and more houses of god coming soon !

P.R. no offence taken my man , i know what your saying , i keep getting told by my people that i am way too cheap for what i do , i am very meticulous about my work , i dont leave a job until its bang on , that may well be my downfall , but its not in me to take the P out of people , not saying you do , but thats the way i am , it will come good for me in the end .
I have my old man to blame , i was brought up with the attitude that if a job is worth doing , its worth doing well .
The way i see it , it was 200 a day for 2 days , im happy with that,when i was in the rat race i was lucky to see 200 in a week , to be honest all i look for per day is 150 , more would be nice but 150 is a doddle in a day so why break my back for more ?

P.R You hit the nail on the head there mate , thats what im about , top service at a good rate , i once came up against the main company in plymouth we quoted on the same job , i was more expensive than him and i got the job , i have since found out what sort of money he charges per job , i would not do it for that ever, but his philosophy seems to be more work you have better it makes you , not so in my eyes , why have the hassle of 7 vans and countless men to sort out ?
I am a happy bunny

Rich P @ F ;D ;D
Agreed. It's not till you start a job like that & get up close that you realise what you are up against! Getting all the mould out of every corner etc. You go through scrims like mad too. It's harder work than the photos do it justice. ;)

Nice one Rich, Drove past that church this morning and the windows look spanking mate, job well done there!
I would av charged a little more prob £500ish.
This chruch is not the smallest church in the world so well done on the 2 days. Shame its only a yearly clean.
