So you wont pay him £580 to do your work as you think he is taking the piss.....as YOU think it will take him a day!!!!

So if he quoted you £400 and it took him a week........Would you offer him more money????????.......Didnt think so.

Its the same in my Trade....Plumbing......... People seem to think..."Oh, is that all you had to do"!!!!!!!!!!!!
