    Sometimes it's probably better to go in just a bit higher with the price when quoting. If it gets done quicker with not much hassle then . Then knock it down a few quid. Everyone ends up happy and it would be good for your business. Dad 👍🍺

      I forgot lol I charged £200 when I quoted as I thought it would take 2.5 hrs
      The jetwashing slowed us down alittle we took 4 hrs in total so probably would have gone alittle higher in hindsight
