i can vouch for trippy in earning up to £100 an hour with 2 of us, on compact, small, new build, £20 houses. it is possible, its a shame that most of you guys are stuck in 1980's prices.

So if I'm not knocking out 100 an hour, I'm stuck in the 80's with my prices? Have I understood that right?

How can you loose 8 grand a year and be happy , not sure myself , but im over the moon about it to be honest , 2 contractors just had the work back for reasons of total understanbility , is that a word ?
As i say i couldnt be happier , its given me the scope to look at my round and beat it into shape , part of the reason is one of the contractors primed me for the recent loss , maybe it was premeditated , maybe it wasnt , but this week im lookin at clearing £800 on my domestic without his commercial .
I was not doing that even with the commercial , it wasnt the price of the commercial , it was the fact that after doing the commercial i was kicking back and being lazy on my domestic , all was sliding , more and more each month , now im back on track , blinkers are off and the sky is the limit , ok , im not gonna be a millionaire , but i will have no paperwork , no real ties , and the biggest bonus more family time !

A very happy Rich   ( if you can relate )   

We lost £43.000 a year when we was dumped by a new facility's manager
never go ???t that back

Back to the original post.

I lost about that much worth of work not so long ago and at first I was gutted but after I thought about it, I too decided it was not such a bad thing, a couple of days of the week I got to have a lie in instead of out to work at 5 it was 6.30, the hassle of the customer was non-stop although the work was spot-on they always, always wanted that little bit extra, without paying of course, on top of that the company I was subbing the work from constantly changed the spec to suit themselves and as for paying out, well lets say I spent as much time chasing payment as I did actually cleaning the windows, add to only the manager could sign for the work to say it had been completed so I was constantly chasing paperwork as well, which was a real pain in the a**e, in the end I decided maybe it wasn't such a blow to lose it afterall!

Perhaps we are a tad strange Rich but I do get where your coming from

Of course its possible to earn that an hour with someone, but he doesnt say every hour 40 hours a week, if you think this is a b s achievable amount to make then you are stuck in the 80's.

Sure thing.  I can do that myself on the very occasional hour.  I'm damned if I would want or even be able to sustain that sort of pace day in, day out.  To try to keep that up I would mess my body up in no time.
