I am a stone fitter and tiler with nearly 8 yrs experience. I feel it is now time to go it alone. Can anyone advise me on whether it is necessary to have a formal qualification or would I be wasting my money. I already have my CSCS card from my current employer. Many thanks
Does anyone know of a frost proof self level compound, it is going outside on a concrete floor. The thickness needed varies from 3mm to 15mm. I have looked at as many as i can but can't find one that's frost proof.
im confident I can start taking work on and was want to start thinking about the business side of things now as I want to go the rite route and be a respectable tradesman... where do I start? how did you guys learn about self assessment and tax and all the rest of it? cheers
