Sorry, million and 1 things going on, saw the e-mail just haven't got around to replying yet.
You did check the backs didn't you. Nothing like a 5 foot drop which you weren't allowing for

knackered, i would have been estatic £300 od quid 

[leapstallbuildings]

£180 all in inluding facias, 

I looked at the pictures before reading the replies.  £180 is exactly what I came up with.  I'm assuming it's a 1 off and I'm allowing for going around the windows/frames twice to try to ensure a decent job.

[leapstallbuildings]

She did actually, jolly decent of her. 

Hope she charged you £5 a cup   

[leapstallbuildings]

I reckoned that job as being a longish half day or a short day - whichever way you want to work it.  I didn't reckon on 3 hours for the conservatory roof.  If I had realised that I would probably have pitched it around £240ish.

I'm not surprised you was knackered, why are you cleaning the downspout in the first pic side on, you must look like the Hulk

35ish, 5'9 ish, short shaved hair (number 2) from Crowthorne, Berks.

[Dave Turley]

i'd  have gone £200-£250 depending on how bad they were

[jonnyald]

maybe it is him / me and 2 other guys were cleaning out at a place called arborfield and this wise guy was there making out he had taken over the cleaning work for the whole building and we werent to show up anymore. he was full of cockyness i just wondered if it was him . i later checked and found out he was talking rubbish

[Oakley Windows]

Arborfield isnt far, the work I was selling is Burghfield

[jonnyald]

im not sure what he was actually doing as i didnt see him cleaning, he didnt strike me as somebody who worked hands on,more a delegating type . he tried to con me he was exmilitary and other stuff . 

[Oakley Windows]

Im not sure what slrobo was doing either, I think he had some spare time on his hands to play stupid twats. But, hey, there you go, live and learn.

[seandyer2003]

Wow thats a good price, i was thinking half that

But at 5 hours its still ok,, i wouldnt know how to say "its £350" and feel confident about it.... is that all you did when quoting?? Or did you do a written quote or something?

[Oakley Windows]

I walked round with her, trying to sound like this was just ANOTHER job *yawn* that we do these ALL the time *yawn* working with clients with special or one-off circumstances, like weddings, *yawn*

I started to feel I swung it when I said that it would be just one less problem for her to worry about prior to the day, so long as she just gave us the go ahead and we could put everything in place. I secured the job 3 months ago and told her then that Id calla month prior to the date and the week before, to allow for any changes or planning, marquee, that kind of thing, which I have done.

She did get a written quote too.

I told her the price reflected the fact that I'd allowed 2 days for it and 'unforeseen' circumstances, I was guaranteeing her having the job done and not having to worry about it, and that she WOULD! be highly satisfied with the job, remember.

So, yes a great price, they dont all land the right way up, but the circumstances helped.


Tell ya what, there was an ingredient 'x' involved...............my flyer
