[QUOTE="chrisc, post: 857996, member: 746"] During my working life I dealt with hundreds of builders. I only found 2 to be any good in that they built what the customer asked for, finished more or less on time and did not inflate the price. Of course you often get the customer from hell who changes things on a whim, cannot make up their mind and object when the price goes up One such customer was Pam Golding, the property empress. She was renovating a house and had the painter repaint the entrance hall 7 times over 10 day period, changing the colour each time. There was a big row on the 11th day when she demanded yet another change of colour. The painter refused to do it and his boss backed him up, telling her she was being ridiculous. Amazingly, she backed down immediately after pretending to be outraged that someone would stand up to her [/QUOTE]
