How you pay
You pay when the job is done. Bank transfer is easiest, and I will give you my details with the quote. You can also pay by card or cash. For bigger jobs I may ask you to cover materials up front, and I always show you the receipts.
Do you charge for quotes?
No. Quotes are free.
Are materials included?
Not unless the quote says so. Materials are extra, I list them in the quote, and I show you the receipts. You are welcome to buy them yourself.
What if the job takes longer than expected?
I tell you before the time runs over and we agree what to do. I never keep the clock running without asking you.
