Depends where you work.

If you're good and they respect you , you'll get away with "no" or, "I'll build it, but if it goes wrong, I'm not fixing this evening and weekends". Safest option is "in all honesty, I cannot see another credible option, no" and if you're fed up of the follow up, drop the word credible.
