pressing me for fixed price to make shit right.
Personally, I understand the desire for a fixed price. But in this scenario surely it's quite easy to say something along the lines of;
There are a number of bodges and critical mistakes here. This isn't me scratching my belly and sucking my teeth, but it is likely I will uncover more. I can't predict what they will be or how long it will take me to correct them. For that reason this is my rate, [£]. At the moment I would expect it to be between [£x] and [£y], and if I discover something that will take it over [£y], then I will let you know so we can discuss next steps.

I'm in remedial work hell today fixing problems caused by cunts who have no right whatsoever to earn a living on the tools.
Found a couple of roof tiles that someone had walked on cracked and then "hidden"by putting back together like a shitty jagsaw puzzle all held together with bathroom sealant not even something exterior rated.........
See attached photo and ask yourself what kind of cunt considers that a finished surface?
To make matters worse the idiots who didn't realise the job was going sideways at a rate of knots when the contractors started screwing PIR board to the underside of the roof battens (this means the tyvek is ripped in multiple places) have actually paid the pricks in full.....
They are now pressing me for fixed price to make shit right.
Arrrggghhhhhhghh
Cunts.
