"Thanks for the feedback.
Starting the end of this month we are going to sort through all the jobs that we collect info on and one thing that we'll try and do is make sure its clear what is or isn't included. for example is this a tradesman or diy cost."

"This site is very useful but is it possible to seperate Trade and diy prices as i feel these could be confusing to people reviewing this site when checking traders quotes."
