Bullshit.
I agree but you won't get anymore than £120 in the north.was getting £120 in 99 and £3.00mtr tell me any other industry that would put up with such a pay cut.lucky to get £2.50 mtr these days.things are starting to change and can't wait to start picking and choosing jobs and having contractors fighting for your services.
Sharpest in the box
don't listen to these big bad boys on here, your a winner in my eyes. :huh:

OCR only at the moment. Got a Monorex job coming up which I'll be spraying.
I'm from Hampshire, don't do big site work. Just do domestic & work for regular builders (extensions & one off developments). I personally don't understand people pricing that sort of work for under £180-£200 a day labour, if you are trying to run a business. I get people round my way pricing £150 a day (re skim work) which will include labour & materials, take tax off that, run a van, paperwork, advertising, time pricing. You might as well work at tesco! Unfortunately customers seem to want cheap work not quality work & the people not paying tax will win most domestic jobs!!

There's definitely plenty of money around here windy, both salaries and house prices are some way above the national average.
I completely agree Cassie, a skillfully job, but plasterers don't help themselves sometimes, the majority of spreads I know look like they haven't washed they're clothes in a month, rough shaven with a fag hanging out of they're mouths & say (I let my trowell do the talking! Lol) how can we demand a professional wage if we look like glorified labourers? If we only turned up in a smart van, on time, clean clothes, didn't swear etc etc we'd be half way there. Just an observation!

Ha ha far from it mate! It's just, you see some boys wearing traccy bottoms itching they're crotch, flicking they're baccy buts on the floor scratching they're heads, wondering why they're quiet!
No stripes here. Transporters are for plumbers, surfers, or even the geekiest of geeks, kayakers!
