absolutely,exactly . The moment someone touches it...all bets are off. I did a job yonks and yonks ago. I knew it was perfect .1x months later I get a call saying part of it is not working .I turn up and ask if anyone has touched things .The visuals look fine, no breakers gone etc .Then 20 mins later one of the kids mentions that "dad did something and there was a bang " !!! turned out he had gone into the loft to add a TV aerial booster and had done the old twist and wrap in tape thing and not done it well . He looked very unhappy as he was charged the call out . I hate people that just cannot just be honest
honest = can you come at your convenience and fix something i broke, thought I was better at DIY than it turns out. £50
dishonest = You came and installed a light switch 8 months ago and it has gone bang, my wife nearly died and I want you to come out right now and fix it for free.
outcome is customer has fitted new light / switch with youtube advice telling them what brown, black, red, blue wires mean and has totally fcuked up.
outcome £250 bill
