More time to set out, square off and cut so yes more money.

Definitely.

Me too. Though on domestics I try and dissuade the customer by saying something like 'really, I've not done it that way for ages, it's a bit old fashioned'. It usually puts them off and I don't have to mess about with tricky cuts into rooms off a hallway and the like.

no,
just because I do one a year.
not every year

Yes it’s a lot more work. Maybe not so much in the middle of a large area but on a domestic it’s probably 40% more work
