Welcome to the forum! I started out as a DIYer a few years ago! I was very handy but had no real experience besides renovating a house from bare walls, a few bathroom refits in previous houses, and one kitchen.

I worked part time, and still do. I did one job, took my time and charged the customer to the quote, or if there was no quote, what he should have been charged, as opposed to how long the job actually took.

I found that people liked me because I was polite, methodical and didn't appear to want to rush the job. I got loads of repeat business.

You have one thing that I didn't have when I started - A TRADE! You have what it takes to get out there and do it.

try easing your way in with kitchen splashbacks to boost youur confidence levels Shane,after doing a few you will probably feel ready to tackle the more problematic stuff. Don't be afraid to ask for advice,I'm not!!
