Blow your own trumpet... - TilersForums.com

[peckers]

My company name is Finishing Touch and i cover Devon and Cornwall,
When i meet the customer for the first time i introduce myself as Steve from Finishing Touch, ceramic tiler.
I give them my portfolio for them to look at while i am measuring up there job, on the first page is names and contact nos. for references which they can contact by phone between 6-8 in the evenings, Then there is my information experience/gaurantees given etc, next to the photos is a description of the job, tile sizes and work carried out etc, and in some cases before/during/after photos.
I talk to the customer about what they want and how they visualise the tiling job i have come to look at, if they are unsure, or i can see a problem with there ideas then i will advise them of ways to over come this or give them suggestions and help them to visualise what it will look like.
While we are talking away i also talk about other jobs i have done and been on and also sometimes problems that have been encountered and gotten other so as they know i know what i am talkin about and i have the experience of 15 years.
I hope to make them feel comfortable with me and for them to know they are getting a tradesman who is perticular with the standard of work i carry out..

I started out in Chicago tile setting with my father & older brother Eak. Married my dear departed wife who was English & moved over here tiling 25yrs ago. Time served in the US, have no tiling quals here, but have now attained part P reg sparky. I also have some plumbing skills and utilise all these aspects for a complete package in domestic bathrooms, where I am happiest. I advertised briefly when I established myself here, but soon found the recommendations were more than enough to give me a prolonged career. The most important aspects of my professionism, is advising correctly, leaving no stone unturned to create the clients dream, and above all dilligence and common respect and courtesy for the hand that feeds.

:cowboy: Company Name
Bodgit ang leggit.
Works undertaken
I will start in your bathroom but will end up doing the bedroom next door, where I drilled right through wall. And the kitchen below from the water damage I came accross while plumbing your basin in.
Time served
I have been trading for six months and there's nothing I don't know. Mind you Iv'e never done tiling before Iv'e been a butcher all that time. It's only slapping some tiles up! how hard can it be?
Why Me
Rest assured I will only charge as much as I can for as little work as possible. I will turn up when it suits me and leave around 3, leaving you plenty of time to tidy up after me before you make the family's tea.


No really pretty much as others have said.
Trade under My own name.
Only do domestic work.
Free quotes, not estimates. ( though this is getting harder with all the differing materials about).
Honest,reliable,trusworthy.
Finish one job before starting another.
All my work is from word of mouth (it's the only way to have it on an Island)
Leave the property clean and tidy.
Happy customer=get paid promptly.:hurray:
