Update.....cancelled job......visited house

well done Chris

its not an easy pill to swallow, it happens a lot in decorating, they are trying to help their sons friend and will have to live with the results, theres a natural justice in this that doesnt help you right now. but at least your heads held high and you have behaved impeccably
 
thank you for all your support. i do understand their reasoning behind their decision, they are after all trying to help some one they know who needs the money and for this i would actually applaud them, but of coarse by doing so they have reversed the situation where it is I who now have need of money at this time of year the saddest thing from a professional and personal point of view is that they are going to ruin imo what was to be a stunning finish to their home.

I have to admit Chris , I did feel the teensy weeny bit of sympathy for the guy taking on a marble job without experiance but that was fleeting and only lasted a nano second, it was more of a " I wouldnt like to be in his shoes when the marble cracks"

I can sort of understand where they are coming from but my head would of ruled my wallet, its a big layout to trust to someone inexperianced, my bro in law moved house last week . it was tiled badly from the front door on, lovely house but they couldnt sell it, his offer was accepted. more than enough below market value to retile in the summer plus the cost of a new conservatory which his builder started monday. hes quids in because they got a crap tiler in. when will people learn LOL
 
Im with Sir Ramic

and from a re sale point on their house they have now cost themselves a fortune as a badly layed stone floor will be seen as a problem but a well layed floor would be a sale winner !!
 
when it starts to fail and they contact you send them a text to say your not interested..............and put happy easter on the end (if it last that long).
 
tomorrows another day cj !!
you've took the higher ground and that takes a lot under those circumstances!!
take care mate and i am sure somewhere along the line you'll make up for any loses caused by this. your a nice decent fella and although some people mistake niceness for weakness, most dont, they appreciate it and they look for it in a person so you'll be back in the ascendancy soon mate ;0)
