  13. haha, thanks for that huck. but how do you find out what other companies have priced on a job?
  14. good to hear work is picking up for you will :001_smile: the thing that gets me is figuring out how much the business should be making, profits ect.....
  15. i found nailers comment really helpfull. i am just starting out , having left college and i go by £150 per man per day. minimum of 2 blokes a day. so £300 plus £50 for fuel/wear and tear ect...... obviously this would change depending on the job ect...... hedges i would price less. large complicated take downs more. but i want to take home £100 a day. my other colleague is also qualified with ND arb and by nptc like me , we are both insured for £5million so both of us want to be making about £100 a day. that leaves £150 to the company...... do you think this is the right way to go about it or not?
  16. the company i work for occasionally has 2 of the avent ones. a 500 and a 600 series i think. really good bits of kit, they have a topper pallet forks and a timber grab for them i belive. can lift a fair ammount too.
