Ive been thinking of having my front porch done for sometime now as my existing one is falling apart, anyway i was in homebase today buying a couple things as you do, on my way out their was some guy at the exit from cystal windows selling double glazing so i thought no harm in getting a price from them even though i knew they would be expensive, anyway i arranged for one of their rep to visit which he did anyway my guy knocked on the door greeted him and told him basicaly what i wanted done from the outside, i thought the guy would simply measure up like the other companies and give me a price, this guy invited himself in expected me to offer him a seat so he can give me a fecking 2 hour presentation then give me a price, i polietly told him just give me a price,must of asked him about 5 times he kept comming out with some poop by saying 'its gonna cost thousands' i asked him to explain then he came out with the most pathetic excuse 'well if we do the work we will have to put propper foundation in by digging 500mm down put some rebar in and flood the pit with concrete this really pissed me off so i told him straight by saying your not building a fecking extention its only a lightweight upvc porch with a door on it you can't possibly be telling me your going to be using a rebar, the porch is only 1100x800mm. He soon knew i found him out and fecked off. Anyway i got a decent quote for £1100 supply and fix. None of this rebar business plus it comes with 10 years gurantee. Typical double glazing firm i wounder how companies like crystal windows get so big, i know now buy ripping people off.
