I guess that happens when you have enough work to fill a whole month and can use ALL your tools ..... squeegies too!! ...... equally well. When whatever problems arise no longer faze you and you are able to make a comfortable living from it. ;D
Come and talk dirty to us!!!

my honest answer.
there comes a time when you have full confidence in your work.
do you knock for money worried if the jobs has been done well enough
when quoting do you feel guilty for asking for a price.
this is so common with any trade. we undervalue our abilities. then one day its just second nature.
you knock to collect without worrying
you know the quote you give is fair for your time.
