Driven over wet tarmac - who is at fault here?

Just get the driveway cleaned and move on. Will she really notice if she makes £24000 this year or £24200...I guarantee she wont notice it.



Disclaimer: I've not read the post which shows how much she earns..
 
Double that figure, but that's irrelevant anyway :p

Morale of the story: break something, offer to fix it as a gesture of goodwill then move on.
 
Bit of an update. Arranged to have some cleaning companies come round and give quotes. Asked the client if she was still happy for us to walk the dog and she is so I would presume we have not lost her as a client.

POA is as follows:
1) Accept quote
2) Pay for work to be performed
3) Try and pin 100% blame on council and get them to cough up the cost, hopefully this ~£100 will bankrupt them so they cannot provide essential services to the deserving.*
4) Offer client a generous discount on their next invoice and give her a nice bouquet of flowers as a further apology.
5) Carry on and make more money
6) Buy House
7) Buy GT3.

* I couldn't resist :D If anything, they will hopefully make sure more signs are added in future so this doesn't happen again to somebody else.

Fixed.
 
I'm sorry but signs being ALL along the road, surely she must have seen what they said?

In my opinion, she's at fault, cough up to clean your clients drive and call the council to arrive the tarmac to be fixed. Prepare for a fine.

Should've gone to Specsavers. The signs were put out later if you actually read the post.

Not necessarily. The other paths/driveways may not have been tarmacced yet so why would signage be put up for them? It's reasonable to assume the road workers will work their way down the street, coning off areas when needed.

The fact the photo only shows one side of the street is probably because all the drives before that point had signs outside them already.
