You will use the sealer on another job, it's happened to me in the past, also another one I hate is when the customer tells you when to come as the weathjer will be raining on say friday, then Friday when they wake up and it's dry they ring you asking you to come, you tell them you can't and they pull their faces, p@@@ses me right off!

Yeh but I text to remind the customer last week, then text today letting them know I was coming tomorrow. I now have nothing booked in for tomorrow so therefore I lost a days work and £140 for sealer! I'm charging them for something lol

Sleet, hale, rain and snow.

We cleaned Phil Brown's render while it was snowing and we cleared the snow off his patio before we cleaned it and to get rid of the black spots I poured the hypo over the snow and mixed it in!  ;D

Work 12 months of year, and 7 days a week for at least 8 months of that.
Anything less is part-time in my book  ;D
