I don't seem to have any issue getting people round to quote. Quite the opposite. It's when we pick one, we always seem to pick the one that quotes and then fucks off. The one that was recommended, I know is busy as my mate's ongoing works have been pushed back by a couple of weeks. But just let me know. Even if he said, "I'm busy, can we book this in for May?" I'd be happy. As it stands, total silence is becoming my main bugbear.
The ones I emailed this morning came back in 10 min, both business partners live local, and should be round this week to quote. Which is a good start, but like I said, it's after that that worries me.
I've got the cash ready to go and we want the work done. I know a lot of trades don't need the work right now. But then don't fucking quote for it. Let someone else who won't dick me about do that.

Feeling this too. We're getting radio silence from firms that have made multiple visits and have seemed very keen.
We're starting to look at breaking the work down and seeing if we can get smaller outfits to do things.
I have no idea why this is an issue but its driving us nuts. We were hoping to get a small extension done by summer and have been trying to get quotes for nearly 4 months now!!!
