Had a couple like that. Iv had a run in with a couple because they didn’t want to pay over 300 for 2 large rooms. Told them both to f**k off nd walked out.£150!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is why I hate Plastering today.£150!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a c**t, more like £450
£450 all in or labour only? It's about 6 hours work lol
£450 all in or labour only? It's about 6 hours work lol
He’s the one who probably quoted 150Could perform keyhole knee surgery twice in 6 hours, wonder what that costs.
It’s not about how long it takes it’s about what the jobs worth. To be properly over boarded, staggered, long screws, skimmed to perfection. That price is fair
Down here I can’t see too many customers paying £450 for a day. But it’s up to you to say the price and not the customer to tell what they want to pay.
We get 650 labour only in yorkshire @zombie
I understood mate lol. Dayrate is still s**t five days a week, it’s just wages, not profit, not proper earnings after holiday sick pension all your overheads etc. It’s a nightmare pricing against all these idiots that go in too cheap. Fucks things right up.You misunderstood.

Working on a day rate is all well and good if you’re getting work 5 days a week every week. If not, try crunch some numbers properly. I’ve met thick tradesmen who think they earn x a day but over a year it’s probably less than half that

I understand someone being a bit cheaper but doing all that for £150 is f**k**g embarrassing. I’ve got pals earning that LABOURING on civils.
Doesn’t even matter as got work on constantly and at the right money, just find it annoying how thick people are.
There's no way he was doing it for £150 including materials.. So for starters the customer is being disingenuous.
There are plenty of good people out there who think £450 is very reasonable.. tight people are bad people that never developed properly, can't stand the c**ts.
I get that money regularly mate. Lose a few to cheaper which is ok but even 150 labour thats ridiculous
£450 is top money tbf. Looking at £375 labour for a cushty days work, but if you can get that regular then fair play
Board lifter ftw. Makes it so easy barely feels like workingHaving to keep the house spotless, protecting the floor etc. Over board n skim a 5x4 on your own is a good data graft imo. If was only gonna earn £250 for it id rather go skim a lil
Bathroom n be home for 1
