Sorry if this annoys anyone, but I did head the post accordingly!

I've decided to review my pricing structure, firstly to make it easier to
communicate to customers and secondly to increase my margin. I'm constantly
booked up for weeks ahead & the Fair Trader thing is generating extra
business - I also feel it adds value to my services (I'm the only accredited
handyman in the scheme).

If anyone would care to comment I'd appreciate your thoughts. Off group if
you prefer

The charges are on my site
http://www.medwayhandyman.co.uk/www/charges.htm

Thanks in advance.



The prices look very reasonable to me, the only comment I have from
viewing that page is (unrelated to the prices):

The logo at the top left takes a few seconds to load, even on
broadband: if any of your customers are on dialup (a few might still
be), the load time would be extreme, which might put them off, it may
be better to resize it in photoshop or similar rather than using the
browser to resize it.


No problem at this end downloading the page. It is presented instantly.
