This is probably the main reason I didn't bother with Europe and don't go to many away games now, I've got better things to do than be in the vicinity of these morons
Yes fair enough, I think I'm in my own category tbh as I rarely need to get other trades involved in my bathroom jobs especially. As well as private, I work in many local schools and leisure centres too.
Probably have 75% of estimates accepted and people happy to wait several months to start so...
It may be a good living for them and if so good for them. If I charged those prices I'll be stuck renting with no pension / savings for the next 30 years
🤣🤣🤣 I wish. Comments like this show people have absolutely no idea what being self employed is.
There's some weeks I earn nothing.
Some weeks I do a few little jobs.
I might do a bathroom every 6 weeks or so.
Tbh if there's someone out there fitting bathrooms every week of the year they deserve...
£225 not cheap? After tax and national insurance roughly £160 a day for hard, skilled, manual labour? I dare say some office workers make that in an hour..
I've been on £375 a day for bathroom refurbs for the past year or so and still booked up 4 - 5 months in advance currently. Nearly a third of that goes on tax and national insurance though!
