Electrical Estimating,

Good question Zoom lad.

Worthy of your weekend quiz - Is it comming back that there quiz? Hope so.

Anyway back to the plot.

I pick my customers as much as my customers pick me.

Some homes are - gosh I`d better wipe my feet on the way out.

Some customers are "clever gits" and think they know everything, I avoid them.

Some customers try to nail you down with "I want a budget price" or "a competetive price". or such as "You can buy a consumer unit at B & Q for £50 and it takes 3/4 an hour to fit, I`ve seen it done". Yes I avoid them.

Some customers do not seem to care about asking likely price, I avoid them thinking will I get paid, customers who show some care about price to my mind shows the intend to pay you when done.

Some places are so full of clutter you have not even a tiny place to put your toolbox. Some folk are hoarders.

90% of folk are reet as rain, 5% are hard work and 5% you could rip em off if you were like that.

That is my overall experience from the domestic market which is 90% of my work.

Some folk tell untruths, why:-

1/ They believe what they tell you.

2/ They are deliberately lying.

3/ They are too embarrased to tell the truth.

Those things usually occour when they (or a friend, relative) has been meddling and beggared summat up.

Sometimes you walk into the job, you immediatley see things that must be done for starters but they say no way, again I walk away.
