I would stay small scale, I went bigger, busy with lots of contracts but it just meant I had no time for self or family at all. Quoting and meetings all the time Paid more tax, wages and expenses. At the end of day was earning not really much more. Well enough to make it worth it. Now I'm back to a 2,, 3 man team, lots of domestic, schools, parish council stuff. Earn well, have more time, less stress. ,, no 3 vehicles at a yard somewhere. Happy days

I've been really busy up to now, definitely getting less work and quotes in all of a sudden. But I Always stash the cash for raining days. Did do a lot of forestry during lockdown and got massive amounts of timber to process into firewood so will be busy doing that if no tree surgery comes in. But yeah gonna be tough next year I reckon.

Agreed
