Just ask him if he thinks it was a fair price Mike. If he says no then leave the kitchen and tell him to get other quotes and then come back to you as he'll see what you should be charging.

why does every one think we are charity workers and we should do things foc or for next to nothing. we have bills to pay, tools to buy, vans to run, insurances to pay, work clothes to buy its not simply a case of profit profit profit.

£500 - £100 tax, 7 days diesel £40/£50 plus baits and probably free extras to include spacers, grout etc. drops you down to £300 for 7 days work. Does your sister work for £43 a day??

 

[Mike]

i said to her that £500 doesn't go straight in my pocket, as you said sean there's lots of things to pay for, i used screws, gripfill, spacers, can of foam and more and didn't charge for them as i had them in the van .

You have been more than fair mate, what they have to realise is you are not doing it for fun, you have overheads which will have to be paid, I would have charged a lot more!
