things are good we do work all over the north west now which helps has its a wider area to cover, domestic is not overly impressive to be honist be commercial for me is good.

Iv get my self 4 or 5 good contacts im the approved conntractor for one and getting a nice stream of jobs from the others.

We went limited in dec and got a second van in april i also employed my second member of staff.

This didnt half help me has my misses had a little boy 27 april so iv had three weeks off and let the lads get on with it but im getting relly de motivated

just picked up 4 new sites for a sheltered housing scheme, iv priced up for a big hotel in manchester completed my first tendor recently with some help.

on the whole business is very very good and its not even been four years.

[mick hay]

Did you get a gutter vac in the end?

[ronnie paton]

You looking for cherry picker etc, i looked at it on website and realised it was hard work , im not bothered about that stuff at the minute, just easier jobs Taking young lad on 1 day a week now and soon 2, 3 days etc so happy with that but its hard finding work - You lost some residential you were saying, do you think maybe its because you got new lad cleaning windows or something??or money? I havent lost too many but i have lost a few ...
