I think you boys are talking about life once established, the freedom to knock jobs back and charge the entire daily rate even if you've only done 3 hours work, if they take it they take it, excellent. I personally would tell a guy to stick it if he was asking for a full days rate for less than half a days work, but thats just me. I don't charge for what I've not done and wouldn't pay someone for not doing something (I personally don't thinkits up to the client to work out our workload). I think once over 5 hours work I'd probably charge the full day, not for 3hrs though.
The Bal kit is quite expensive (just under £60, from memory) but apparently the best around. It is a pain having to go back tomorrow to tile it, but you gotta take the rough with the smooth at first eh!

Of course, you would charge 1/2 or full day rate according to what your task comes closest too.

I will have to find a quicker drying tanking kit as it only gives 10-15 hours drying time. Hence my original post for this reason.

Pricing is always the biggest issue in this game.
I agree that you should not over-charge for work. If you are extremely busy and wish to put in a higher price to make it worth your while fitting the job in then why not ? If the customer accepts your price then fair do's. Otherwise suit your price to getting the job. 🙂
