We've just got a fairly large domestic job. Ensuite, bathrooms, new boiler, new unvented cylinder, fitting new rads. A good bit of work.
Customer is insistent on wanting to supply their own sanitaryware. Even though I've said that if anything stops us working because it's wrong, bits aren't there on time etc they will have to pay our labour while we wait for bits.
I've explained that on every fit only job we do there are always issues with items supplied.
I've explained that my margin on supply and fit covers us to sort any bits out if there's a problem, and also that I can get replacement items next day usually.
Now they've emailed me with pictures, yes pictures, of their chosen items today and asked me to confirm if they are suitable or not. Politely told them that once they are ordered and I can see them I can tell them if anything ISN'T suitable. If they want advice etc on sanitaryware they can buy it off me. Cheeky sods.
