Taking the piss

[carlos]

Have been asked to price a job, some dabbing patching and all the chases thing is the fella wants
to have someone else skim it. Don't know why just wants me to do all the shite.
Has any one else ever had this.

Re: Taking the (french word)

just put a price in for whatever you think the job is worth, dont kill yourself over it... maybe the other spreads agreed to skim it providing the bloke gets some mug in to do all the prep, maybe he's busy, maybe he's got an ego the size of saturn and thinks prep work is beneath him?.... if theres any arguments tell him to get the 'other plasterer' to do it..
sounds like a load of crap to be honest...
if i was gonna skim a wall with chases i'd hardwall em all up in the morning and skim the whole wall later on...
