Is that all. 50quid doesn't sound bad to me.

 

At least it was your truck and to someone else's......

 

Sorry bright side.

50 quid is cheap..... Like already said at least its your truck and not a claim by someone you don't know......

Could be worse, on a job a few weeks back overheard the gardener telling his mate to be carefull strimming round the paths as he once smashed one of the windows in the customers conservatory

Scarifying a lawn this summer and got a call from the client to say well done, nice job BUT...

His patios door had a wee hole, so wee yet so expensive as it turns out...

600euros for ONE double glazed unit!

France can be expensive...

Stump grinders are lethal for that! I use a predator R50T and that picked up a chunk of engineering brick took it back over the wheel and out the front Straight through the guards, a feather edge panel into the neighbours conservatory window, needless to say I didn't make any money on that job

That's cheap I put in a side window on a sabb last week and auto thief sorry glaze wanted just shy of £500:sneaky2:

try not to use Autoglass... they are so expensive. Use an independent auto glass company if you can. They are just as good and a 1/3 of the price. And if you can get the car owner to get the window done on their insurance and just pay them for the excess. You'd be surprised how many don't mind. After all they just want their car fixed.....
