Find it funny when you price a job and get it done sooner than expected customer asks will any money be knocked off you estimated 4 days and done it in 3 ESTIMATED the key word but when your job goes over by a day they never offer to pay you extra as your on a price they say haha

 

[smoother09]

Only ever give them a rough estimate of how long it will take! 3-4 days ect, f**k all to do with them price is a price I dictate to customers not other way round.

Had this once before with a karen type customer who was a pen pusher,i said if you went to work and did your tasks within 4 days instead 5 should your employer deduct your pay aswell for completing your work duties a day before,her silence was enough for me,some right cheeky b*****d customers about

You live n learn .
Go in price for how many days and stick a day on . Don't mention how long it takes

The price is the price any extras or unforseen situations then become part of that.
Time has f**k all to do with the customer, most of us leave a good job and that is the most important part.

Depends really . I.m on forth house I done for a vicar. Decent bloke . He now wants a window cill boarding and skimming in bay window . (f**k**g does my head in when people want cills skimming) were doing all house so it really is 2 mins to pick it up while we go.
I told him I ain't gonna penny pinching over that but it is gonna be extra for the 3 ceilings we had to over board

As long as we plasterers are the one's thinking "depends really", then that's the right balance.
When the customer starts thinking that, it's time to walk.
