I've recently found myself in an odd position. Got a call back in April about a tree on a house after a storm. I was on the other end of the county. My partner, who also owns his own business was in the area so I had him bid it. He got it. We worked the job. My policy is I get paid before I leave the property unless other arrangementsare made in advance. Mainly to keep this kind of problem down. The customer gave him a sob story about the vurus and he wasn't working and didn't have any money as soon as we were done. I was already in the bucket headed to another job. This week he tells me rhe guy won't pay after several additional invoices were sent. It's been over 4 months. So now it's on me to get our money. I want to drive out there tonight and get it but I know I'd better not. I'm the most easy going person you'll meet but if someone is deliberately screwing me over I can change in a second. I found out the guy has already been paid for the tree and his roof damage by his insurance co. Do any of you have a set rate with which your price goes up after a set time? Any advice?
