There are some real thick people who either should not be in business or will sell out there industry for a pittance. They should take the trouble to do a bit of research before you jump in to the market.

Why would he only be earning a tenner an hour.
I know a guy who charges £4 a house and does between 7 and 8 per hour
Quality is rubbish but his custys dont care because of the price.

That's the way ahead then eh? Who cares mate? Funny prices make me laugh. It's funny to me, I'm not even in the same country. I wouldn't be laughing if my prices were like that though. Are yours? I'm asking, because you seem to give the impression that the prices are OK if you can bang out 7 an hour.

I'd give up the game if I ever end up thinking like that. It's people like that guy that keep prices down in some areas.

I've got a couple of mongs like that around where I am. Never lost a custy to them though. Bet they feel really crap at the end of a working day, knowing they could earn at least double what they do for the same work.

Only my opinion though. Some people see 7 x 4 quid a good hourly rate, even though it could be double. Funny old world eh?  ;)

I bet these guys just don't know any better - they've never done any research and just pluck a figure out the air - and not declaring earnings to the taxman helps a bit too  ;D

Chris, I never said that its the way ahead.
Simply saying that to charge a low price doesnt mean a low wage.
£4 a house by  7 an hour = £28 over 7 hours = £196 per day.
That might be small change to  you but a lot of people
would be more than happy with it.
I know a lot of builders who used to laugh at funny prices. Not
laughing now.
And no I dont charge those prices, but I dont do 7 houses an hour.
