Trailer boats are a fixed fee. Other Pre-Purchase inspections are based on the size and type of construction of the vessel and quoted prior to commencement. They may also include other services such as non-destructive testing and valuations as required. I prefer to provide a fee proposal PRIOR to commencing work so you know what you are getting and what you are paying for. A timeless quote is worth repeating:
Nobody was ever sorry
he bought the best there is!
It’s unwise to pay too much. But it’s
worse to pay too little.
When you pay too much, you lose a little money;
that is all.
When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything,
because
the thing you bought was incapable of doing the
thing it was bought to do.
The common law of business balance prohibits paying
a little and getting a lot.
It can’t be done.
If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to
add something for the risk you run.
And if you do that, you will have enough to pay
for something better.
There is hardly anything in the world that someone
can’t make a little worse
and sell a little cheaper - and people who consider
price alone
are this man’s lawful prey.
John Ruskin (1819- 1900)
High quality products (and services) …..pay! |
