A proper contractor that wasn't just adding the cost of maintenance to your bill would have said, something along the lines of, "because we haven't checked these fires before, the
first year we will check both fires to make sure they are working correctly".
After all, suppose they had checked the front room fire found it safe, but in actual fact the back room fire was unsafe and unchecked? You would have been left with a faulty fire on contract to them what sort of safety regime is that?
What if, (there you go Gayle a 'what if' moment), the garages take on this style? Oh yes, thank you for bringing your car to us, this year we'll check the front brakes, then next year we'll check the rear brakes, whats that? oh yes, if either front or back brakes are faulty it does make the whole vehicle a potential killer, but I don't see any reason to change our policy do you?
