    Since 2011. I 'semi-retired' from flooring after doing it for 30 years, mostly self-employed, done the odd gov job for friends but thats it really.

    However, been back doing it 'employed' for a local company and have seen a decline on prices, and the standard of work they expect. Its mostly what i called 'revites' ... kitchens and bathrooms in social housing. Laying over existing vinyl etc as its'quicker & cheaper'

    Ive not done it yet and won't, I always uplift & screed :)
