When you make the appointment time to quote the job, make it when you can get there, don’t let the client push into a time you just can’t keep. Being late is a terrible start.
The client will understand if you say, Sorry, I just can’t be there at that time, and I would prefer to make it a different time than be late.
Before you turn up, change into clean clothes, remove all paint and gap filler from your hands and face. If you don’t have time to go home and get changed, have fresh, clean overalls in your ute and change into these.
