I friend of mine sub-contracts (or rents) a lot of his work out... He takes a 20% cut.

sound mate,im getting a few new ones every week,im starting to get the hang of the backpack-its well handy,i would recommend it for doing the tops in your run as its far quicker the only bad thing is the water on the ground  but ive had no complaints(yet)

20% min or its not really worth it.

Still need to do the admin, get the contract in the first place and then chase the money. All takes time.

The 20% covers the above. Any extra is your profit.
