<Guilty> I have not been true to Uncle Ed Balls's advice of taking a receipt from my Gardner (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...et-a-receipt-from-your-gardener-10047783.html) in the past. So too with some of the odd tradesmen who I have come and done bits & bobs. But these are small jobs & sums
Was speaking a colleague who is looking to do some building work and going to pay his builder in cash!! The builder is registered and certified and will give all the certificates etc. On the sum that he is spending, it will save a few quid. We are also looking to do some building, but I am not sure i can stay in a place where I am not sure who I should call if things go wrong?
Question: if you pay builders in cash, how do you contract for it? What if he does not do a good job or you need something fixed??
I am sitting on the fence on this one.
