Many bleat on about how much it cost to get the approvals and all the work involved, but none of them are fessing up to the vast amount of extra work they have gained from all the lifed components or about the fact that many raped you on the grounds of getting you up to Part M standards. My own recent annual came to over 7k for replacement of components that are now lifed under Part M. Do you think the maintenance company did that work for free?
And of course thats their fault, isnt it!
My friend just paid a certain well know organisation FOUR THOUSAND pounds in admin charges to be brought under Part M.
Perhaps they saw him coming, or is one of those they could do without! Its no good blaming the M(G)s - be a little pro-active and search around for a better deal FFS. That way youll drive out the leg-lifters.
