Defo sleep on it at least.

It's the state of the Industry at present - everyone cutting costs and trying to get the cheapest deal! If he knew he was good enough to work for you then he knows he'll get a decent job done at a lower cost.
When we used to employ, apart from contract work, we never got another recommend job from any tiler I employed. The customer either went direct to the tiler or they didn't come back - take your pick!
Any tiler worth his salt would be working for himself.
I've been on jobs for others where the client has asked me for my number, and they have been told they can contact me through the others. It's short sighted to take a one off job at the expense of an ongoing supply chain.

Gary, Johns right, whatever way you turn theres someone who will try and stitch you up. I now never tell anyone what jobs Im tendering for, what Im working on, or what I contracts I am about to sign. Some sneaky little **** out there, takes it upon himself to think that he can undercut me and do the work. The fact that they are family, or best mates means nothing these days, theres always someone pushing their luck. Take a deep breath, thank god that you have work, and let the two muggles come to blows on site at a later date.

And sit back and enjoy the explosion in a few weeks time.
