I get 50% of whatever the estimate was before I even think about starting work, that includes family etc, just easier, saves me hunting for money to pay for stuff if it takes longer than expected. I try to give long lead times so I'm not rushing stuff. The remainder to be paid upon completion, or if its a big amount an interim payment before installation then remainder after. Always do an estimate for everything, even small stuff, not always a written one but they will have a figure before I start work.
