How can a customer save money before you start the work? Please give 3 tips
three tips to save money would be to clean up the site of all toys, dog bones and feaces, rubbish and anything else that may take me longer to do the job.

What are the typical things that you need to know before you can provide a quote to a customer?
site inspection is a must as every job is diferent. it also gives me a chance to go over everything with the client to give a more accurate quote, and allows me to assess the whole job while im there.
