  • A-fucking-men, I always tell them not to bother asking me to quote again, they tend to look bemused as if I should be grateful for their trying to underpay me.

    Also, people who won't pay for materials up front on a £10k plus job. I am prepared to risk not getting paid for a few days of my life, but I will be damned if I will pay for the privilege.

  • There was a big thing on the Nextdoor app, people balking at being asked for 50% up front.
    This was apparently only a tactic used by cowboys trying to steal your cash. Was gonna wade in but thought better of it, wouldn’t have managed to remain very polite!

  • Depends how much you're talking about doesn't it and whether all materials get delivered to site.

    Definitely remember my folks having friends who got stung on this back in the day.
