This won't go down well with a few people on here, but I'm looking for opinions. I have been asked to quote a job for a lady who is insisting on ordering her tiles before I measure up. She is going to guesstimate and then add 50% and then order them from Fired Earth (more money than sense) She has to have her "agger" (sp) removed and has already made arrangements for it to be removed and then refitted. She contacted me through a recommendation and has told me she definitely wants me to do the job.

The dilema is part of me says price the job the same as any other, while the other part says charge a wee bit more because she is pretty much committed to having the job done.

I don't think I would have the front to mark up my price. What would others do in the same situattion? The guy who taught me to tile told me you never want to hear a customer say "is that all?"
