is the industry saturated with people at the moment then? i seem to see trucks from different firms all around the place, seems like theres alot of competing firms in my area (southend/basildon)

 

its the same everywhere i'm afraid.... work is thin on the ground in some places

We had boom time for many years, people moving house and getting work done, sites being cleared for new building and people just feeling fairly well off, so there was loads of work, because of this lots of people set up.

 

Also far more people seem to have decided they want into the industry too, year ago it was a much smaller industry that few knew much about.

 

The amount of work available as shrunk just as the number in the industry has reached its highest ever, with others trying to join.

 

Over the next few years I think the industry will have to consolidate, may will leave as wages and profits are bound to fall and then we will hopefully end up with an industry of a sustainable size.
