Starting up on your own.

[Leyburn Lad]

Ah Utilities...the dark side..... though thats whats lined up giving me 48 hours a week over winter, its a good thing to get into as with Utilities tickets you still can do domestic, if you just have NPTC tickets and do domestic, you cant drop on to Utilities. Diversity is the key - i know a lad who does tree work, scaffolding, building, and works on a trawler and a bit of second hand car dealing, and it aint too bad at any of them. and especially at first, -and its a good philosophy in general- if there is a £1 profit to be made i'll be there, unless some one is offering me £2.

 

Probably the safest part of the industry to be in at the moment, wont get into the dark side of utilities thing but its certainly come on a long way since the mid nineties.

 

What REC are working on over winter Dilz?

Its the only way you'll make decent money in any trade. An employed tradesman will never be a rich man imo. You need to figure out your own rate for climbing and doing your own jobs, cost+profit +tax its fairly simple in theory.
