[DHTiling]

Hi members..

Hope all is well..

 

[John Benton]

What recession... It's going pretty well at the moment. Booked up to mid-August and a kitchen booked in for end of September

 

[The Legend; Phil Hobson RIP]

Not good here Dave, pricing a few, not winning many, it seems quality comes second to cost.

 

[Tony73]

I'm ok till end of september, thanks to my contractor :hurray:. but will look for new contractors for sure.

Cheers Dave, just ticking over, not many prestige jobs about atm, seem to be up against some silly prices.

From what I can tell it seems to be more about contacts and contracts these days more than waiting for the phone to ring from domestics who are all price-based.

 

[Ian]

Still going strong, slowing a bit but nothing to be overly concerned about. Having a week off this week but, have a couple of big jobs(150m+) to price when I get back, hopefully get those to take me into the autumn.

Your right Dan, the phone for domestic is next to vilch and any jobs I've had inquiries about has been a struggle with the price and not bothered....

 

[Peter]

Got about 3 weeks infront of me at the moment then taking a few weeks off for summer. Got a bit for the end of July and August to start back to so can't complain. Been lucky to get 6 day weeks for most of 2012.

 

[ishi69]

Got about 7-8 weeks in front and have made a good contact for prestige work a few weeks ago. Got three decent jobs lined up for next year too. If I get any enquiries I can't commit to Phil I'll pass them on to you mate.

The majority of my work comes from recommendation and I always get the job at the price I quote for. When I'm recommended I'm not normally having to price against anybody else either, which obviously makes life easier. I very rarely do any commercial work, 99% domestic, and had to turn away 2 bathrooms last week as they wanted them within next 4 weeks. Just couldn't fit them in.

 

[swanman]

Nice work if you can get it

Very quite in Cornwall

 

[CDS]

Had a good start to the year and was fully booked from Jan to end of April. In May it started to slow down and June's been dreadful.

Have picked up a few decent Plumbing jobs and some tiling repairs in the last 2 weeks which have all been good money and paid the bills, but the diary for next week is empty. I'll be up on the High Street on Saturday morning handing out business cards if nothing comes in tomorrow....

[Perry]

It's so quiet even thinking of taking a few domestics on :mad2:

 

[Diamond Pool Finishers]

[nybor62]

not great at mo some commercials in pipe line but no dates yet , domestic side forget up against stupid pricing in my area

[peteablard]

Still busy but having to travel for it. Virtually all ommercial for me, some of it my own but most of it through contractors.
