work

[lisbon67]

just wondering how how you think the work situation was,everyone staying busy?

 

[stevetheplumber]

Been busy last couple of weeks lets see if it lasts

 

[gaspastemania]

Been absolutely manic last 3 months and hope it continues !!!

 

[mjt]

cant complain but to be fair has been quite steady - plus people will be putting their heating back on soon..........

 

[royston]

Yeah really busy at the moment and still work coming in for next month.

 

[PlumbBobBob]

very very quiet for me

 

[cdodds2004]

as the weather man would say its been fair to moderate at best lol

 

[SimonG]

Absolutely riven out, booked up until end of November, already booking bathrooms into the spring and got a list of jobs to look at as long as my arm and that's without winter being just around the corner.

Apparently we are in for sub zero temps and snow in November, must be right as it's not from a weather man, but an old farmer.

I am down to my last few hundred squids and living on credit card so i am very happy today! huge weight lifted as i was considering selling tools and car to pay bills.

Sorry to hear about the op mate but glad you've got work coming up to help sort you out.

 

[PlumbBobBob]

congrats on your news AW pleased for you

 

[AWheating]

cheers for the support, ill be so glad to get off my arse and earn some money. ive already sold my wet and dry vac, my 240v sds, my 12v screwdriver and drill and some of my spare hand tools. I just got to keep my finger crossed that the repair holds up once i get lifting some boilers etc...

 

[Resolute]

Fingers crossed for you mate, might be worth getting someone to help you with any real heavy stuff for a while.

 

[CES]

Hope it goes well for you AW. Ive had a bit of a mixed bag of work coming in, bathrooms which I don't do, ASHP to price , 6 boiler services next week and Solar PV to fit. Still appearing in dribs and drabs though.

 

[bestrest]

There are only few works coming nowadays but before the current recession there are lot works coming. I hope US will surpass this recession.

 

[cr0ft]

Booked around 3 weeks ahead at the moment which I'm quite happy with. Had a fairly quiet month in August but it's always quiet down here with the school holidays and all, every year is the same.

Other than that been busy all year

I find the best way to get an accurate idea of the work situation, is to speak to your local plumbers merchants. If they aren't selling materials then theres a fair chance your plumbing mates aren't busy either. Lost count of the people who have said their constantly busy and all their work comes through word of mouth blah blah blah. Only to see their vans parked up outside their houses day in day out....
It's a funny old world....

 

[Destroyer2813]

Not to bad booked till end of month and got two extensoins coming up with bathroom and boiler works in, plus had a call about a new heating system today as well.

Funny that aint it Ivor, oh yeah well busy cant get a break then drive past there house in the middle of the day and there at home

Good luck for tomorrow - let is know how you get on.

 

[CES]

Good luck Gerry, Hope it pans out for you.

 

[Phil]

Yes good look Gerry, don't forget let them show your keen as it goes a long way, certificates aren't everything.

If and when I take someone on I'd rather take on someone who's really keen rather than the moody get with all the certs.

You may have both, I don't know!

 

[helpsy]

Good Luck Mate!!
