Good man
 
Should phone him up and say sorry,i made a mistake about the quote,it should have been ÂŁ1000,let mr tight get an unqualified monkey in from myhammer who will do it for ÂŁ100 quid and then see his shed and computers go up in smoke
 
Your price seem's prytty fair. Easily two day's work there, the cost of the armoured and the board will probably be ÂŁ120+ and then the rest of the materials will probably push it up too about ÂŁ200. And then your day rate, he seems like one of those who wants everything for nothing
 
Brilliant ! Sad you didnt get the job but commenable that you stuck to it...and agree that price would of cut you not much slack, and you wouldnt of been putting your feet up at any point..........I had simular experince with garden shed and LED garden lights, thing was she had just had garden llandscaped, so was MEGA twiddling about to keep out of sight ...But i got laughed at too when quoted and like you it was mooooooooore than fair. Easy to get disheatened BUT dont...Guys like you will keep trade alive
 
Trouble with these people if they give you the job when you are on site you get the "can you just do this and just do that" what they don't want is the price to go up
