You've certainly sold yourself well on here so I can't understand why you're losing work

one of my customers has a pub next door.

Nice retired "'electrician" (his name for himself, I have doubts) fitted two new sockets in two bedrooms and changed some lights for £25 cash.

Took me about a day to put it right. (spur off a spurr X 2, no Main bonding to water and gas bonding didn't arrive at met, some of lighting earths cut back, new lights were metal)

Customer thinks I am very expensive compared to his drinking chum.

To answer your question, livewire, hardly any time at all. In fact I now get practically every job i quote for, because I am registered. (And at the right price, too.)

That`s life kid.
Who do you get to work on your house then? The cheapest or the bestest or who you perceive (rightly or wrongly) to be best value?
