We could (but wouldnt) ask you not to smoke, council tenants are told not to smoke in thier homes for an hour at least before a workman is due, if the workman isnt happy, he can refuse the work, if I asked a householder not to smoke, most of my customers would refrain, but new customers might take umbrage and use another company! So we wouldnt ask.
