[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 190839, member: 250"] Assume you wont get anymore work from it... Assume other prospective customer will see this work and take its as a typical example of your normal work standards that your reputation will be built on! As long as you are proud of your work and it all complies with current regs then you cant lose... But be VERY VERY aware of going too cheep and too temporary.. cuz you set a benchmark for the standards and costs the customer will expect from you in future.. when it is harder to raise up standards if you start from a low level.. If the customer is any good they will want a proper job done anyway... If you got customers only after cheepo quick fix they will very unlikely want you back for more expensive proper fix. From your own admission this is a busy Kitchen.. do a full and proper risk assessment of whats needed to do a safe job for yourself and the customer... Last thing you want is any electrical injuries to your customers staff due to your quick fix... Saying you were promised other work don't stand up in court. Tread cautiously and don't be over keen to get work at any cost. :coffee [/QUOTE]
