Hello and welcome

 

can do both but mostly domestic, althougt have had more contract quite recentlly.

 

After - again! - a bad experience today, being contracted by a Property Management company for an insurance job, we will think twice before doing any contracting again. Domestic clients are much nicer ;-) (and keep their promises).

 

Hi and welcome

 

Thanks for all your welcomes i can only do contract i know it limits me but have been busy for a number of years with steady work .
Domestic is just to much aggrovastion dealing with the general public i know contract can be a pain but i much prefer it.

i do mostly domestic, would like to do a bit more contract to be honest

 

harder on the knees and the rates arnt as good in comparrison lol :roll:

 

sorry, disagree a little, but only a little... :|

 

hmm, then again customers these days want everything for nothing!

 

was meaning m2 rates lol
Not bottom line :roll:
:mrgreen:

 

now i'm lost, are you saying that domestic rates are better or the otherway round.. :?

 

Ive always found contract pays better, but I find it hard to get in to

 

I think it does and once you get doing it you just fall into it...

 

anyone done portakabins?, doing them very soon as an on going contract, ive been told i can get away with charging what i want, but i dont wana take the p!ss.

 

Do ya mean "PORTA-LOOS" OWEN?.IF SO YOU CAN CHARGE IT N TAKE THE "p".
