    What to do in this situation? To charge or not to chage

    I've started out on my own recently, still cant make up my mind what to do when in the course of doing a job I turn a stopcock that starts leaking or a gate valve that seizes etc. " It was fine before you got here" sort of thing. Do I charge to replace them or do it for free? What do you guys do?

    Amazing how many customers confuse min labour charge with a call-out charge.

    When you tell them on the phone that there is a minimum labour charge of £xx (usually if the job is small and quick) some will say, "Oh, there's a £xx call-out charge?" Tempting to call their bluff and say "That's right. The job will be extra."
