Customer From Hell

[widler]

Looks a good job phil, some clients are complete nutjobs.

Had one before christmas, a new extension,we krended it and also the back of the house.
Next door neighbour, a complete nutter(its a long story)put a photo onto 'cowboy builders' facebook page saying, " is this the worst extension you have ever seen, cheap materials and cowboy tradesmen ect ect"
So i went on to cowboy builders page and invited dom and melinder to come around and have a look , i gave my name/number and business details and told them id love for both to come around and go over everthing with a fine toothcome , id even take melinder for a drink
She took it off straight away.
All this stemmed from the neighbour asking my customer out for a drink and he turned her down. 🙂 🙂

That helps CJ....

I wasnt being serious, however much we all would like to do that with some customers.

Could you not suggest she gets an independant survey on the job as it stands..........if everything is hunky dory with your work......you shouldn't have a problem with it..........and hopefully it'll shut her up, but with some people nothing stops them being the smart arse.

I worked for a precision engineer doing a bathroom once,think he had something to do with the invention of the fishing electronic bite alarm you could imagine what that was like.
You could say that it was one of the best bathrooms that I have ever done.
He had drawn every single line on the wall to show were he wanted all the cuts and the pattern tiles.
