[QUOTE="Essex1, post: 406553, member: 25368"] Hmmmm. I am not sure if I agree with you here. There are many many vulnerable people out there that have not the slightest clue on what makes a good tradesman. Take vehicle repairs. We have a few teams dotted about the country. What do I do. Go and survey all areas and hold interviews? No. I need to trust that people are who they say they are and that they have the qualifications and experience that they have advertised. I would like to think that within the industry I work in we have a good reputation for both standards and price. Now take my prices and put them in the domestic market and it just will not work. You cannot blame Mrs X down the road for looking around for cheaper alternatives. You contradict yourself in your post because the guy with the fence got someone out the Yellow Pages for twice the price for the same job. There must have been a reason why he chose not to use the recommendations you suggested. Maybe someone else told him to stay well clear. Someone he trusted more. Who knows. One thing is for sure. Quality and service is in no way whatsoever linked to the price you pay. [/QUOTE]
