pegleg33 134 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Work's shit at the moment but well paid work is out there if you look. I'm on a site in Boston me and a mate get £760 to 2nd fix a bungalow, 11 doors, small kitchen, window boards. window battens, aqua panel in the shower, a couple of boxing's and all the arc's and skirting's.We do that in a day, then we get the plaster boarding, 96 boards all have to be loaded out and some are a fair walk down a ally but we get £480 and do that in a day aswell. Only problem is we might only get 2/3 days work a week but we're making good money. Start a barn conversion wednesday on day rate so hopefully that will fill the other days in, it sounds good but I've struggled the last couple of years and been to proud to work for the sums they were offering Quote Link to post Share on other sites
