THANKYOU FOR WATCHING
shouldnt have charged your grandad mate , hes had to put up with you being a kid )
That's not a "family member", that's your grandad. Anyway, as a brickie I love the channel and the humble, down-to-earth content. Respect from London.
Unsubscribed about the family charge and 1 door fitting £200?! Scandal!
£200 for 1hr and no materials.... wow and i thought £100 a door was high, still cant get over the 200 for a hours work.
I charge $150 for pre hung doors, recently a guy wanted his door turned around to open inside ( like it should hv) new threshold , jame , architrave, caulk done! $400. He thought it was too much so I told him how easy it was and left instructions ? He will never call me again! I am through being taken advantage of! They can do it theirselfs!
I never charge family i actually made a full oak kitchen for my in laws and never charged a penny . I just look at the free child care we have of them they gave me crates of stella for months so i was well happy. Just look at what you made on the first job it covers you for helping your grandad.
Not anymore, been bitten to many times and remember, nothings for free.
Those floor boards looked a right mess. Definitely would have renewed in full lengths
Why didn’t you give him a rate and negotiate with him keeping in mind that he is family? Maybe like a 20-35% discount. You live and you learn.
Great video m8, nice work 👍
Some unreal comments on this video!
:)) nice watching your videos pall keep up with the good work
I am rooting for you from the states! You’re a hard working man ! Your gonna be very successful Contractor!
The framing for the loft door does not seem adequate. Its going to sag at the top
My grandad died years ago, I've got his WW2 medals in a cabinet, if i was you id give him the £40 back.
Family and friends should support your business as much as anyone else. Whilst doing jobs for them you still have to pay all of your out-goings, plus loss of earnings for the time taken.
I am happy to help out close family members to a point. Friends are the tricky ones. A friend of mine is a barber. When he started his business he charged £10 for a hair cut. Rather than his friends expecting free haircuts, we would give him £20. That is because we wanted to support him. It has to work both ways for friends and family.
Some new tools mate ,woodent mine a review on that single 54v miter saw you’ve got 👍
Starting a carpentry apprenticeship rate your videos highly geeza
Prices are what they are, overheads such insurance, maintenance, equipment, fuel etc. all factor in to your billable hour rate. Your time is valuable and you have to have your minimum charges to cover operating expenses and general living.
