Sorry guys, it was only an estimate - Not a quote. Customer obviously not too happy with price though as they are getting another tiler in to estimate the job later this week. I thought it was a fair price but obviously they didnt!! Thanks for all your input. I hope the tiler who goes later this week is a higher price, then when they phone me up to do the job, I will tell them where to stick it as I am not that desperate. After all, if they couldnt take my word on a recommendation, then I am not sure I want the job now anyway. I know that is probably cutting my own nose to spite my face but hey!! I wouldnt have minded but it is for a friend of a friend and I was asked to go round on recommendation to estimate the job because they know I do an excellent job and quality is paramount to me even if it means it takes an extra day or so at no additional cost to the customer and I would always go back to a job if any issues arose in future., unlike some!

Hope that the other tiler charges less and gets the job.....then hope he does a crap job and they call you to put right....then you can tell them to kiss it...or charge them double...

Mark.
 
That was also on my mind Mark. Nothing better than I told you so is there! - Lol.
Not sure I would go back to do job though even if the other tiler made a mess of things. They have mithered me for a month to go and do the estimate and also asked when could I fit job in as I have been really busy. So when estimate was given and still asked when I could do job, thought everything was OK. Then 2 days later get a phone call to say they are getting another tiler to estimate the job, I was a bit miffed to say the least. Will see what happens!!
