When you get a complaint like this you can then print out the photos compare against what their complaint is then tell them it is not your fault and it will cost someone x amount of dollars extra to fix up someone elses muck up.
Do not discount for cash as it still takes you just as long to do the work and working for mates family can be a road to disaster as they are always looking for mates rates and if something goes wrong they ask how you could do this to your best mate.
Photos are also good as a referance for other people so you can show them what you have done and how the job could look like.
Good one Jim.Quote:
