Usually he quotes the job but you don't see him attend to it for ages, weeks maybe. Then, when you think he's forgotten about you he turns up at 7 in the morning, looks at the job and realises he hasn't got the right tool to fix it with him today and you don't see him for weeks again. All of a sudden he comes back again at another ridiculous time when you're arranging to get the job fixed by someone else and attempts to have a go. He mucks around for an hour or so and states that he has to order in a part from Taiwan/China/Pakistan and that will take 6-8 weeks. 14 weeks later he turns up again but the part is the wrong size so re-orders from Taiwan/China/Pakistan. 20 weeks later he comes back to finish the job and charges an exorbitant amount. You haggle and argue with him but he won't budge. Next thing you know he's taking you to the small claims court so he can get his money. Once it's all been settled legally and 1 week after the settlement, the problem he came to fix breaks and nearly fries you.
