3-5days depending on how busy they are, if its a specialist ordered item it can sometimes be a pain waiting for suppliers to get back to you & this can take weeks, I personally try to answer within a couple of days, good luck Alex

Normally reply within a few days and if there’s an issue update the customer so they’re always in the loop .

Hi I would give the trade 10 working days to respond and if not received by then a prompt reminder. Some of the best builders will have a period of time they can't do the work due to their current schedule. This normally shows they are reputable tradesman.

I don't have an exact timeframe for this, as it varies depending on the individual tradesperson and the scope of the job. However, a general rule of thumb is that you should receive a quote within a few days to a week of the tradesperson visiting the site and inspecting the job. If it takes longer than this, it's always a good idea to follow up with the tradesperson to confirm when you can expect to receive the quote. Communication is key in any business transaction, and if the tradesperson is professional and reliable, they should be able to provide a clear timeframe for the quote to be prepared.

Depends on the size of the job. I usually take around 2 days for a smallish medium job. Can take up to a week for the larger jobs like extensions and loft conventions.
