If you fitted a bathroom suit 10 months ago, a wickes budget suit bought by the customer, and the tap inner became stuck closed, would you charge to repair it?

If you supplied it then maybe. If customer supplied it then its their rubbish

If the customer supplied materials? Yep! Every single time!
 
I would expect to be charged in that situation.

Except a) I would have fitted my own and 2) Would have bought a proper suite from merchants!

Chargeable if you didn't supply items.
 
Of course you'd charge them unless you are running a charity or have mug stamped on your head.
They supply the materials their problem.
 
did you supply the material? No
who purchased it? The customer!
is it your responsibility to guarantee a material that you did not source? Nopeee

charge!
 
that customer supplied came from your profit/markup which you add incase of call back=no profit so charge as normal
 
Yep! That goes also for stuff I bought that the custard insisted on against my wishes.

Currently dealing with the second faulty Drayton MiTime programmer at the same house. I told customer they were brand new on the market, unproven reliability. He wanted that and no other. He's paying for my time spent in sorting it out.
