hello,
wanted some advice please.

i've built a small round off houses ( only 30 houses) from asking previous customers (people i've done plastering for over the years).

was looking on expanding on this (by canvassing or advertising) to be 1 or 2 days a week work and either hiring someone or getting a self employed window cleaner to do it.
whats the usual way of paying someone self employed in this industry?
1.set wage  2. x amount per house 3. set wage plus fuel or is their a differnent way.

lots more questions, thanks for any help

yep blue monkey is right i rent several rounds off 2 differant windys works well

[clearlyclean]

yeah I rented work in the past and is best way to go simple 10-20% of what the round is worth

[leights]

just take about 30% of the overall...30 quid for every tonn, although i wouldn do it for that low %, but im sure someone local would for a few extra quid

[boldy1304]

no more than 20% or its not worth it

I was also thinking about this option? So for say, £1200 worth of work per 4 weeks, what would you expect to make off it by renting it out? Also do they supply their own tools, transport and fuel??

i use all my own stuff van system the lot i bill them in my name ive signed contracts and pay 20%  (£240) to the owner of the round i keep a note of work done who said no not this time etc etc. but i wouldnt pay more than 20%
