Job got done and bloke was over the moon with it and so was i :)
Went for a nice pint after it, stoood in the boozer covered in addy like a real worker (only ever done the Army for 14 years before i started this so it is a whole new world to me). Really really chuffed.

Think i underpriced cause the job took over a day longer than i anticipated but you live and learn, don't care atm :)

penno

Nothing in the room atm as he aint fitted the toilet etc but he is gonna give me a bell when its done so i can get some pics, will post about a 100 different ones then :)

Only thing i wasn't to chuffed about was the layout as it created small slithers at the bottom of the basin and above it. Told the customer this but he was adamant where he wanted the position of the border, wouldn't raise or lower it.

Well done Penno.........Has ya bum stopped twitching yet:)

Agree with the others about underpriced on this job..............but your'll get the hang of it...........and then other jobs will come along and go so smoothly that you think you Overpriced.........some jobs you feel you can almost throw the tiles at the walls/floors and they end up in the right place.........everything goes smoothly.

Enuff waffle from me.........I'm half cut
