I think a plasterer would tell me to jog on anyways as it'd be hardly worth there time.
I asked a roofer who was working on the house next door all week to quote me to fit a vent tile for my new extractor (something I reckon would take an hour max) and he said it wasn't worth his time to even quote me.I look forward to my roofing DIY..

Those small jobs you are best just to book the trade in and suck up whatever it costs.
It's the quoting most trades aren't interested in not the work.

He perhaps doesn’t want to sink time into quoting to compete for a tiny job not worth much money (compared to doing a whole roof etc).
I understand why people want quotes, but I think the culture of wanting multiple quotes for every job has driven a lot of tradespeople away from even wanting to offer them.
