If you can find out solicitor that is handling estate send them your bill the executor will have to pay out of proceeds of sale plus will cost a lot more for solicitor to read and deal with your bill than if she had paid it .

She has agreed to pay - rather reluctantly.
A few months ago one of my long term (9 years+) customers died... She fell down the stairs :-/Her son and daughter inherited the house - worth about £550k... They got in contact with me asking for a quote to clean external gutters, fascias & soffits so that it looked nice for the pictures when selling it...I quoted £145 (4 bed detached, filthy gutters fascias soffits)...They got back to me to say how shocked they were at how high the price was and that they would leave it.So they were inheriting £275k each, but didn't want to pay £72.50 each to help to get the house looking nice.Muppets!
Used to do an old ladys property who recently died. Daughter asked me to keep cleaning - she lives in London. The house cleaner must have forgotten to post my slip on so I didn't get paid last time. Daughter phones me and is now quibbling over two cleans now due payment £30. At the end of the conversation she mentions the house has now been sold and Ive been told not to bother cleaning any more. She's just inherited well over £700,000!
