Looking for a bit of advice on outsourcing work I dont have the experience to do.
I am not really fast enough to make any decent money doing large areas and there have been jobs I have turned down because my experience is lacking in certain areas and I would rather say no than do it wrong.
Im actually interested in outsourcing some jobs I get to quote on and wanted advice on using other tilers also I dont want to just lose business or hand it over without making something.
First thing I understand rules say that if you have done various jobs for the same company there are tax implications (classed as an employee NI etc) but how do the building companies do it? are the contractees paid directly by the client?
If I contact another tiler to do a job for me I guess im risking my company reputation if they are bad, but the risk is also that they try to under cut me too? or just be smart and say 'oh Ive already had a call on that job' and go and stick a card through their door. I assume I would be unlucky if that happened!.
What I basically want to have is maybe 4 or 5 guys I can go to for different types of tiling jobs who I know are reliable. I would quote the jobs and outsource to them providing them all the materials required. Paying a base rate and obviously taking a fee on top (i.e 10% of the profit or £2 psqm something like that).
Anyone doing this sort of work in their area? If its something you want to take off line then pm me and Ill send you my telephone no.
cheers
