Respect for not charging him 👌👍 im sure you'll be paid back in the future 👍
Definitely
Nice you are not charging the customer you have done a amazing job well done
Thank you Raymond
Anyone who is self employed has done this, the good guys are those who stand by their quote and write it off to experience 😊
Good of you taking pity on the customer. A good turn is always nice to hear about 😊
I’ve seen Steve do this motorhome from the start honestly the work is truly outstanding and Steve knowing the story & history and taking the hit shows the measure of stevie & what he is achieving
#Respect
Thanks Stewart 👊
For future reference, NEVER give the customer a quote. You cant legally change a quote, but you can change an estimate. Therefore have a contract which states, " this is an estimate not a definate contract price. Labour charges may change due to unforeseen further work required and parts, materials prices may change due to circumstances beyond our control". Customer must sign and agree before you start the work. Kudos for what you did but of you intend to stay in business, you cant work for free!
Until the bill is paid, you have a legal right to keep the vehicle, (called articifiers lien) until the bill is cleared.
Nice that you are not charging the customer for your mistake, but well done on being honest 🙂
I couldn't do that to him, i know the full story behind it.
I always keep the channel honest and show my failings, too many other channels making it look like they never have a problem.
Nice you are not charging your customer for the extra work. The camper looks great,I hope he appreciates your time and effort,and it passes the mot with no advisories. Well done enjoyed watching the camper videos.
Top bloke and a gentleman I salute you sir☺️👍🏻
Thank you
At some point everyone will make that mistake. Looking at your before shots, its had some patches in the past, and bet that wasnt cheap for the owner. Its great that the channels i watch such as you and chops etc show the good and the bad. As you say you might have lost your arse on this, but you have done the right thing for the customer, and the trust and relationship may repay going forward as he may give you repeat business, plus nothing advertises better than personal recommendations online and by wird of mouth
You Realised too late on the cost's. But man enough to absorb it. For the customer. We all learn from our mistakes. Cheers. See you in the next one.
Well done on looking after your customer, excellent video 😊
Cheers Daniel
Been there myself underestimating the size of a job but just have to bite the bullet get it done and learn for next time. Well done getting stuck in and smashing it out 💪🏻
Good luck with the new building glad utube and cars are working out for u respect from south wales realy injoy the channel 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you mate
Welding work is more often than not, as straight forward as it seems. Always allow for additional work and if you don't need to do it, it's a bonus for you and the owner. (Which you've obviously learnt the hard way).
Cracking job btw. I have a habit of putting a smidge of fibreglass filler on the weld as it's waterproof and protects the weld. Wee skim of Cataloy on top and Bob's yer uncle.
You needed that bigger unit, get a ramp in there and it'll make life so much easier and allow you to make more money quicker. Good luck guys.
A painful lesson but in life we all make mistakes key is to learn and not repeat ❤
100% mate.
Great work on that motor home, ive also bought a couple of tickets just before dead-line fingers crossed
Brilliant video, looking forward to the next one! 👊
Thanks 👊
Great job on the motorhome. Welding is an art on rusty vehicles , the tin worm has a habit of munching behind the scenes and when you price accordingly people think its expensive but its money well earned .
Top quality job on that motorhome welding. Wish you were about 40 miles east, I'd have plenty work to send your way! 😊
Thanks mate.
40 miles isn't far mate, i can do collect and deliver 😂
Just bought 4 tickets but I'm all the way down in South Wales so if I was to win its going to be a bit of a pain to collect it. But I had to support the channel ❤
Good luck, I’ve got 2 cars to pick up from Chops Garage so I can deliver it if you win 😁
Great channel, and your such an honest dealer, well done
The man who never made any mistakes never did any work.
Good on yer Steve for telling it how it is💥
You’ll be laughing about it in a couple of weeks….😏
We all slip up from time to time,we can't be on the ball all the time.I bet your welding will be needed soon for a money maker,take it as a lesson and practice👍
Defo, you win some you lose some 😂
@@HomeBuilt Exactly 😆...appreciate the complete honesty too
Great content as usual, cheers 😊
Another great video! Fair play to you on the motorhome 👍
One of those jobs that turns into a Muckin Fission
Yes mate
A quality transformation. I have just done something similar with a 2005 VW Polo using infinity wax products. Nice to know I’m doing it right.
And ignore the haters. I’m not bored of your videos. If I was I’d just watch something else😂
thankyou Steven a smashing video and a briliant job youve done there,,,re the pricing etc,it doesnt surprise me at all how youve handled it,,👏👏as usual honest and fair,,have a good weekend yourself Stevie,,all the best and see you in the next one,,👍
Great job you be glad to see the back of this one i bet..dad has done a few of these vans always more and more as they run on..smashing new unit… good man for takeing the hit on this one .🏴👍🥶 9:24
If we dont loose we will never win 🤦♂️🤦♂️😁😁😁👍👍👍
Very true
How did you weld so close to the fibreglass body where the sills join? I have a friend and that’s where theirs is rotten 🙈
Very slowly and carefully with a fire extinguisher and water on hand 😂
@@HomeBuilt no one wants to touch 🙈 lol great job on yours turned out great
Good video and Sh’’’’ happens, but you will get it all done. 👍👍👍👍👍
U live and u learn
You would think after 30 years doing it i wouldnt 🤣 never mind on to the next one.
Never won the beemer Stevie 😭 hope your doing handover content hopefully ..👍
You'll need to invest in a lift soon Steven.
Its 1st on my priority list mate, just need to get a couple of grand together.
Tried to enter raffle I have credit but can’t get onto buy tickets, I have entered your other raffles without any problem.
Someone else had the same issue earlier, try this link.
