For me personally. A deposit depends on each jobs material requirements. Generally if its a lot of moneys worth of gear then I do ask for a deposit or the amount for the materials. I've recently fitted 75 oak sleepers with a 4 meter square oak decking. That was close to 4 grand and the customer happily paid the merchants direct. But I sourced all sand cement screws and bracket. Small jobs I Generally pay. Sometimes thoe just as a mater of trust with a new client I will ask for a deposit. Good video
