Long story short. 450 quid +75 if not cash in hand, to avoid Mr tax man, to do work which is described by said surgeon to take no longer than 2 hours......
Is that a joke? 250 quid an hour to chop down 2 bushes and dispose of the mess?
I think I went into the wrong business.
This is on par with the 350 quid my mum once paid for a plumber to fit 20cm of copper pipe twist fitting, not a bit of hot work, to replace a busted bit of crap push fit plastic stuff.
That was his emergency rate, and he didn't come until after 5pm when he had finished his normal jobs. Even though he was called at midday. Again it took about ten minutes....
I know its a cool story but these prices/quotes are ludicrous or am I just utterly out of touch?
This is in London .
