Djf tiling

Hi all. Im a self employed tiler based in hertfordshire near bishops stortford. Im currently a one man band due to the lack of regular work but normally have my son on board.

Ive been in the tiling trade for many years now and it has served me very well in the past and kept the wolves from our door. Regretibly im finding its a bit of a dying trade and over the past few years my work has been getting slower and slower and im finding the jobs i get are the high end of the tiling buisness due to the fact that your plumbers ect are taking on the tiling side of the jobs as well, probably due to lack of work. No offence to plumbers by the way.

Anyway now my rant is over lol. Hi everyone and not sure how you are all finding the tiling trade but i hope it picks up and this year is a better year than the last.

Dave.

hi dave, welcome to the forum :thumbsup: i'm sure you'll find many tilers on here are really busy and many have no work at all, i fit kitchens as well as tiling and luckily for me i've been busy with the kitchens this year and very little tiling (only the splashbacks where i'm fitting the kitchens) but as we all know fortunes can change with one phone call (or lack of it) good luck on the work front, and if them plumbers are pinching your tiling start plumbing and pinch their work :lol:
