I was chatting with this carpenter mate the other day who's been doing posh kitchen refits in big houses around here for like 15 years now. Back when we were both starting out, he'd blast music, leave sawdust everywhere, crack jokes all day. These days? Super quiet, almost methodical, wipes down every surface before he even packs up, asks about allergies before using certain finishes. It's like the job's turned him into this ultra-considerate version of himself. Wonder if it's the clients demanding it or just years of dealing with million-pound properties rubbing off. Anyone seen similar shifts in the guys they work with?

Funny you mention that because I've noticed exactly the same thing with some of the decorators I've crossed paths with over the years. The really experienced ones who've been grinding on upscale home projects for ages tend to get this calm, almost obsessive focus on little details that newer lads just skip over. They show up on time, explain every step without being asked, and actually care if a tiny imperfection might bug the homeowner later. Makes a massive difference when you're living in the space. I reckon after so long doing painters and decorators south london style jobs in those big Victorian houses or modern builds, they just develop this sixth sense for what keeps clients happy long-term. Not saying everyone changes the same way, but the good ones definitely level up in how respectful and precise they are.
