Hi all
Having read loads of posts on here i thought i would say hello and ask a few questions if i may?
I already work for myself, doing roofing and building work. Personal reasons and the down turn in building has really affected me the last 2 years. And at th ripe old age of 44 my back cant handle the heavy side of my work anymore.
I used to do about 4 days a month window cleaning 10 years ago when i moved area as a way of getting a regular few pounds.
So here is my thinking, I really need to have a regular income.
I need to find a job that is not as heavy on my back.
But still want to work for myself, i have the ladders, the van and still have my bucket, boab, blade etc.
I need some new scrims, scraper.......anything else you can think of??
Any places you recomend to buy from?
Looking to start canvassing and was thinking of working out the prices ....£1 per window, £2 french/patio doors does this sound about right?
Im not sure how much to charge for a conservatory, just windows? (say about 12x12)
My aim would be to earn about £1600 per month......i know its a hard one to say, but approx how many houses would i need, how many hours do people work a week to get that amount .......I appreciate that area's are different, im just trying to get an idea if possible.
Well sorry for loads of questions!
oh...just wanted to say what a great place, so much info!!
Thanks
James
