Hi,

Am I seing things or is it that every plumbing and heating van seems to have the words + electrical all over it

and also theres a lot of "Electricians" vans which seem to have a gas safe sticker on them....
 
The van I normally drive has,, Refrigeration, H.V.A.C and M&E. on it.

I'm half of one and all of another, H.V. M&E.

Just because it's on the van doesn't mean the driver is all that's advertised.
 
I'm the same in this respect.

I can do anything, if not by me its via me - van has all the trades on it.

There are a group of us who are all good mates forged over many a year.
We are all tradesman running as sole traders working on different disciplines.

We have in our group:
Plumber
Heating engineer
Floor Layer/Carpet Fitter
general builder x 2
plasterer
tiler
Electrician
Ground workers
laborers

We all pick up work and share it around - we are very organized and get lots of recommendations and repeat business.
We all do our own thing but 95% of our work comes from eachother.

We are very loyal to eachother also and I also double up as a plumbers mate or laborer is one of the other lads need a hand and they too will also come in a pull cables in with me.

We are not actually very cheap, our average day rate is approx £230 - but I trully believe our work is top class. we don't do cheap, I would rather leave that to someone else who can take on the hassles of cheap!

Works for us
