we are taking jobs for feb at the moment -but we do fit kitchens and bathrooms for a major store that keeps us busy while the heating jobs have picked up really well, (that'll be the colder nights) generally we havent suffered from the recesion at all our lead time is always 2-3 months. of course we can fit small jobs- even a boiler change in at shorter notice. we are a one man band -boss and me ive just completed app nvq level 2 in heat and vent started level 3 a couple of months ago.
