Less valleys the better, also less problems you will have later on.keep gutters to the outside of building  none of this butterfly roof crapo or box gutters, 22 degree roof pitch (easiere to walk on the better.Mainly the less valleys the better ,as ridges are easier to cut in.Big flat roofs are the best with no angle cuts.

masterrel, crashy & oneplumberI wouldn't have expected any other reply from the likes of you. Its like waiving a red flag, any opinions, be they positive or negative and guys like you will jump head first to defend your so-called reputations whether your're right or wrong, very predictable.I work in the construction industry so m…[Read more]

What's this nonsense about being charged $120 for a 2am callout – I was charged $230 for a Saturday night callout at 7pm. The guy lived 15 minutes away, he was actually in the area doing another job and spent a grand total of 15 mins at my place fixing an electrical problem. I knew I would have to pay around this amount, so it…[Read more]

And why is that? Can you add anything other than calling me a tosser lol I think its very clear that the majority of tradies that have replied seem to have some sort of a complex

Actually most have explained why prices differ or are more expensive, or have agreed that there are shonks out there. I wasn’t calling you a tosser (…[Read more]

There certainly does seem to be a re occuring theme of the tradies being very 'sensitive' and overly defenssive. On one side there is an argument about sub standard work being provided and people being ripped off, and yet the tradies who all reply seem to ignore this totally and reply in defense of their self worth and right to make…[Read more]

I think tradies should be required to quote an hourly rate and detail a schedule of activities in half hourly increments as part of the quoting process. When conducting the work they should maintain a timesheet detailing their actual times and associated activities in half-hour increments to be compared against the qu…[Read more]

Sometimes the customer is nice at the start, but is a pain after the tradie starts work, and a lot of times the tradie will quote a high price if:a) he is really busy and doesn't want the job, but will do it for a premium priceb) he thinks the customer is a bunny and he can get away with an over-quotec) all of the above.I'm not…[Read more]

Are we back on the customer's attitude AGAIN? I thought we had a gutful of that a few weeks ago with you and crashy. Customer attitude is an external factor and should not have an influence on your professionalism in your job.I worked in retail for 30 years, and if I had let the customers' crappy attitudes dictate how well I…[Read more]

Tradies have to cover insurance such as workers comp, public liability and also petrol, bits of material, travel time, licenses, GST, taxes and a host of other things. You’re an idiot if you think we should produce under qualified tradesmen. The have been trying to clear out the cowboys for years as they do more damage then good.Every job is di…[Read more]

Terry bec in keira street wollongong.I think he looks after some of wollongongs bigger property players.Always check first though.

Actually he made all his money before he got into the seminar business. I thought the same thing till I saw a program on the abc. I think he is one of the few who actually did not gain all their properties and shares through running seminars. He also has a (among his other businesses)international business that is one of the fastest growing in…[Read more]

His course is about 10000 for 5 days. But after researching one of his testimonies (that is in a similar trade to me) I have to wonder if this could be a good kick in the butt to further my business.If the content is all rah rah and back slapping, Id give it a miss though

If you do not nominate a principle contractor while you have work carried out on your home the onus then falls on you.Im sure I read this on a workcover site.I also heard union members will be able too head hunt for convictions and any fines paid will go back to them.
Its not carved in stone yet though.

What happens when interest rates change, tenants leave or general real life stuff happens.

I watched one of those today tonight current affairs programs and saw a story on a worker who fell of bodgie scaffold. Apparently when he tried to sue, the builder simply shut down his company (one of 25).It was known as a phoenix company. Nothing happened to him as far as work cover was concerned and he owned nothing personally. Would a trust in…[Read more]
