Had a customer chew me out about my brush technique...
Last Tuesday an old-timer in Green Bay watched me clean his chimney and told me I was just pushing soot around instead of actually scrubbing the flue walls. He showed me how to work my brushes in a tight spiral motion instead of just jabbing up and down. Anyone else had someone on-site completely change how you approach a basic job?

Hated hearing that, nothing worse than getting called out on the job.

Right there with you. Sometimes getting called out is the BEST thing that can happen.

@richard_young80 nailed it, getting called out stings but it's gold. That old-timer's spiral trick sounds legit - I had a plumber chew me out once for not heating PVC primer enough in the cold. Now I keep a torch handy and the joints hold way better. Any other random tips from customers that actually worked?
