[QUOTE="Sparksfly, post: 522445, member: 2321"] Any Customer who are hands on DIY etc will always find trades work expensive in my experience. (I was brought up to fix everything myself so i see your view) The cost was not expensive at all... in this trade you are expected to turn up when the customer wants usually at a moments notice with additional requests on the day and then find work somewhere else. It costs time to travel to the next job and most people will not wait. Costs money for insurance, scheme membership , regular updated regs, technical info...oh and fuel/van costs....admin as well.....oh i forgot food, why I am so thin?? There is much more outside the actual physical job. I usually test my work and provide a cert later. So don't worry you have not been had at all. Gas certification is easy money comparing it to a proper EICR...way more involved. Im just enlightening your good self...not here to criticise. [/QUOTE]
