NO,no,no,no, lets please not start a race to the bottom, prices are already low enough, with this kind of thing.

 

Agreed, twice and thrice!

 

We should be striving to get our pricing absolutely sky high. We take a risk, the work abuses our bodies and our essential gear costs a lot.

 

Undercutters are half-wits IMO.

I went out last night and looked at a fair sized willow leaning over a single storey clay tiled roof and glasshouse beside roof,big water filled ditch running beside trunk.

Every last bit will have to be lowered and all cordwood cut into logs,so i said £700.

He nearly fell in the ditch and looked at me as if ide gone completely barmy and said he'd had a quote for £150 cash and that surely ide made a terrible mistake.

He then pulled out a grubby business card with '150 cash' written on the back to show me.

I wished him good luck and on the way home wondered what on earth the tree business has become.

Be worth going to watch, Tim. Might make a few bob from Harry Hill. :001_smile:
