I was very polite and explained my reasons for not pricing so ive left the door open and parted on good terms
he agreed with me and said I had reinforced his misgivings about the job and he is going back to his insurers so the job may still come back to me to price
another thing I mentioned to him was the drying times on the oversite and screed and it could be well into next year before it was safe to tile but that was before he showed me the letter
its a shame as it would have been some pics for my album at long last, I shall carry on pushing tiling and hopefully this time next year I will be where I want to be
